Been Busy putting the '89 back together

I don't get on here much and I noticed I hadn't shown off the '89 since I put it back together.

Here is a link

That is beautiful.

Thanks! It has possibly been my most favorite project. Kinda funny how the articles always refer to it as a budget build. Of course, compared to what I have seen some spend on one, the budget has been relatively modest.

You doing most or all of the work, other than the second paint job saves a ton of money compared to what people will spend for some one else to do the work. Not only that experience and knowing how to do it yourself is always a great feeling once your done. Very nice project!

True, I tend to forget that some people have difficulty changing their own spark plugs, let alone assembling their own engines. Still things I like to learn like welding. Recently purchased a roll cage kit, so me & my buddy will be doing a little installation work this spring.
