Long time...not much progress

So the car sat untouched for much of last year. I regret that, but that's in the past now. I'm moving on.

Let's see. What has been done in 2010? I started pulling the chrome off for preparation for paint/body. We've removed the seats and carpet. We've pulled out the engine, drivetrain, and exhaust. The internal areas of the block are pretty filthy, so I have decided to send it off for an overhaul so I can start with a clean slate, and have confidence the engine is in good working order.

Replacement parts purchased: oil pan, exhaust manifold, a few other smaller items.

So I am off to look for someone to do paint/body and the engine overhaul.

I plan on posting some more pictures soon.
