69 A56 340 'Cuda 4 speed

The engine bay is painted! In the process of touching up what needs to be black. The short block is done, needed to round up some parts for the heads, got that done on Tuesday. Another week or so I will be picking up the engine.

Progress on the 'Cuda got short tracked a little more, since I am now a "regular" customer of my body shop guy. Smacked a deer with my 2012 Ram diesel, after 32 years and 1.2 million miles on the road, finally happened! Minor damage, $4300.
:oops:
I needed a new pickup anyway, going to order the new 1500 Ram with the V6 diesel as soon as they are available. Supposedly 26 mpg, and plenty of power.
