Default Ahhhh

I have one week left of school and then im home for the summer!!! Had my last exam today, and I have to turn in a paper on friday. Today I ordered a rear diff rebuild kit today and my 3.55 gears came in the mail about two weeks ago. Im just itchen to get home and get started!!!! Also, other than main bolts, rod bearings, main bearings, and a balencer, the short block of my 355 is ready to be balenced and put together!! Looking at the projects page just makes me wanna go home and get started so bad!!! Hopefully the summer job can provide some extra funds to get a poly front end kit, and some vortec heads for the motor. Good luck to everyone thats got projects!!! May the summer fun begin...get it...May....as its May first.......har har....I gotta get out of this dorm....
