the engine was painted this morning...can't wait to hear it purr again!

 

Looks Good!

 

Welcome to the site Patrick!

 

the engine is back in place

 

Very nice and clearly a great deal of work. I don't know about your truck but my '75 rusted through the floor behind the seats because, unknown to me, the rear window seal was leaking.

 

mine had holes in the bodywork

 

reminds me of the rot i found in mine. was thinking i would like a vinyl roof, but not now i have seen what its done to yours.

 

Hello everyone. It's the gearbox's turn for a facelift... It's not excessively worn, but we're changing all the seals and other kit parts.







Some engine components have been replaced, new or rebuilt as new



It's beautiful from this angle too

 

This morning it was gearbox assembly. It should join the engine next week.

 

good morning. This is it. The box is closed. It will join the engine in the coming week.

 

The drive unit is now in place. I can't wait to hear it run, but it won't be soon ! Very good work from my mechanic friend Rémy

 

Hello everyone. A quick trip to the body shop, things are moving along nicely.
