Ya know Ronnie it relaxes me, I can see your point I drive a 2005 F150 and I would never work on the engine. But 1970 now were talking, No crap in the way the 1971 or 72 model added an air pump and so it went. I use no air tools I call it anger management..

I used to do 1 or 2 major restorations a year for customers.
Been a while since I wanted to do one.
It's definitely a labor of love because you can never get the $ out of the job that it's worth.

I do love it, When its your own ride you care more about the little stuff. Every clip bracket and assorted hadware has been cleaned sanded and repainted, I had a guy say to me why change all the pushrods only a few are bad. Well cause its mine and I dont want to do it again..

Nice...They are a lot of work. I did the same for a 73 camaro but that was when I was young and like you enjoyed working on cars as a project. Once you past a certain age you seem to loose interest in cars...at least I did. Now I want to get in and turn the key and not be concerned with them. You have to love it to be into like that.

All the best with it, she is a beauty. Most of those babys rusted out bad.

Maybe someday I'll see you on that HD theater muscle car auction show.
