Still not sure on how it will drive with the 3.07 gears. The only road I've been on has a 35MPH speed limit. Seems to accelerate ok but would really like to get it to highway speeds. Hope to get inspected and plates on it soon so I can take it out. If it doesn't work out, I have some axles ready to go with brand new 4.10 gears, limited slip diffs and a NV4500 for that matter. Had them built for the Apache project, but who knows I may go a whole different direction on that one.
It does feel like it is sooooo close! Honestly though, as much as I want to finish and be driving it, another part of me doesn't want it to be done. It's been my go-to weekend activity for 6 years now. I know I have other projects lined up to keep me busy, and the '59 to build, but somehow it just doesn't feel the same. Am I just nuts???
