Hey Listers,

For those of you interested in following the progress of the restoration of 
my 1967.5 2000, things are heating up and as soon as I get some pics 
together I will be posting them on my website.

The chassis is almost ready to roll. All it really needs is my differential 
installed and some rubber on my wheels and it will be rolling for the first 
time in over two years.

Also, my block and cylinder head have just come back from the machine shop. 
The block was hot tanked, line bored and both head and block were 
magnafluxed. The head did need to be shaved a little bit but since it 
started as a 4.528 it ended up at 4.510. Still well within tolerance and no 
shims needed.

The non smog cylinder head has new guides and hardened seats and I can 
hardly wait to see it come together.

Ross has promised pics and I am especially interested in pics of the engine 
rebuild itself. I will certainly pass the pics on to anyone who is 
interested.
