I'm thinking that with her on the wall he can still see her while he's working. Otherwise he'd have to stop working and get on the computer to see her :lol:

30X40 with 12' walls. The high walls maybe make it look bigger. It has been looking smaller to me lately because of all the cars I have in there. I had to move the Rhino out to make room for the 62 Impala I'm doing a frame off on. :waah:

198plus 11-19-2009 10:08 PM

Re: 198Plus build
 
Little update on my truck........Test fit an old HEI distributor, fit great now I can order a new one...... Installed the Built 700r and TCI 2400 converter with new crossmember......... Also put on new Pro Form 750 DP with a 1" spacer......... New valve covers, got to love these heads (roller rockers with short valve covers great design).........New high flow powdered coated water pump and alternator brackets with new pulley setup, waiting on my new power steering kit to show up.........As you can notice one header is gone, had to have one new tube fabricated, number 3 spark plug hit tube because of the angle plug heads, then it's off to be Hot Jet coated againnnnnnnn.......

Hope to start it up next week ;)

Looking good. I shipped the power steering pump and the engine mounting brackets on Thursday morning. You should have them on Saturday, via UPS. They are nice remanufactured items, but they are going to look like turds bolted to that motor. That thing looks very nice.

Thanks Tony, maybe they want look that bad ;)
