82 Restoration Continued
It's been a few months since I posted and just wanted to show you guys where I'm at. The money spent is really starting to add up at this point and I haven't even touched the body. The engine machine work is completed and I will put that together next weekend. The transmission should be together by the end of the week and hopefully I can drop those two in by the beginning of March. It seems I spend a lot of time searching for parts on this car as they only put this driveline in a C3 one year.

I bought this July 1st 2012 and here are the pictures of what it looked like after I got the body off. To say it was rough is an understatement but I only paid $5000 for it which was really to much. I had another thread started but moved pictures so you can't see them which is why I restarted this one. I had to repair the frame on the passenger side where the fuel lines had rotted in place and someone made a repair with copper for the lines.
