Well finally got some info on my parts...Summit is really sad...I ordered the stuff 2 weeks ago because it was in stock and would ship "Today" well that really wasn't the truth.

But after a few phone calls out of the kindness of their hearts the decided to have the parts shipped overnight and they will deliver today or at least that is what the tracking number says.

We got the cold start issue resolved last night and now it fires up on the first turn of the key...Kinda hard to get that accomplished since it has to be cold to see if the changes worked but we now have it fixed and idling.

Got some of the final wiring done...The headlights are wired up and I will be installing the grill tonight.

Gonna do some cosemtic work on the seat brackets and get those installed....Hopefully the parts I bought arrive today and we will be able to get them installed tonight......Transmission linkage is kinda important to have before a test drive I could be wrong

We dont really have alot to do....wire horn, turn signals and fan on the front end....Put in 2 grease fittings, weld the bumper brackets plus the parts I have coming and that is pretty much it until we test drive it to make sure everything is good mechanically.

Then I will at least be able to drive it around and get estimates for the interior, stereo system and paint work but at least I will be driving.

I still have some other things that I will be doing once everything is working...I am going to have to fix the rear bumper...it is not to my liking...Plus the grille, air cleaner, park lamp bezels and rear bumper have to be re-chromed.......

My ultimate plan is to have it completely finsihed by 2013 Mr Hyde will turn 50 yr old next yr.

So we are keeping on keeping on.
