Well, it's time for an update on the progress of Goose. This was one of those bitter sweet weekends. I've had the chassis ready for the body for a few weeks now, but I didn't want to put the body back on until I had cleaned up the underside a little. The last few weekends have been spend lying on my back under Goose scraping, wire brushing, and painting. The good news about this weekend was that I called in a few favors and with the help of a friend and a subcontractor's crane, we set the body back in position. Everything went very well and shifting the engine forward 2" left my plenty of space between the firewall and HEI distributor. With the help of my friend and our two wives, we shoved the truck back into the garage (my driveway is pretty steep and yes, the girls jumped in and pushed). I was flying on cloud nine at this point.
