hi Mike,thanks.it's coming along,can't wait to see the engine and trans back where they belong,later this week it'll happen.i cheated a little on the emblems,i really didn't do much,i let gravity paint them for me.i dropped a few drops of paint in where i wanted it and tilted the emblems this way and then that,and watched the paint flow into where i needed it.when gravity ran out of paint,i'd add some more.pretty slick.i was ill when the rad was laying there on the floor.i wasn't fit to talk to for a day or 2 but i got over it.it's nothing some more money won't fix but i've spent a ton more than what a bunch of oil leaks should've cost but what are you going to do,fix it right or don't bother is how i operate.it'll be worth it in the end.stay tuned later in the week,we'll see the engine and trans back in between the frame rails.take care.Greg
