All my steering stuff came from ebay.
The telescopic shafts is borgeson.

Finally got the drivers floor in, need to clean it up and paint.

Notched heater box for turbo clearance,

And cut up/welded oil pan to get some extra room for the front diff.

Nice work, that oil pan mod looks top notch. That kind of modification (cutting and reworking good parts) makes me nervous.

So the turbo has to fit in that area of the heater box?? That's gonna be one flame throwin' heater!!!

Thank you, I was a bit nervous. I had known were the pick tube goes but I still ended up fit checking after cutting the new oil pan- nervously second guessing myslelf.

The heater box was touching the turbo, now it's just very near. Gonna have to wrap the exhaust and shield the firewall/ floor. But I think it'll be good we'll see how the motor mount flex affects it before I do that though. May have to scratch build a new box.

Got 2 boxes from summit.. 2.25" stainless, a pair of j bends some hangers, straight pipe and a nice resonator.

Eventually I hope you make a list of all the parts and suppliers you have used! Maily because I am lazy and don't want to have to go back and read every page!!

Got some of it to stick together

Steady progress--Just Empty Every Pocket $$$

Made some room for the clutch master

Finally got the exhaust fitted.

Steering is a little tight.

Reinforced notch in the motor mount for steering linkage, sleeved the column o.d; what a differance, got the gear box mounted and plumbed.
I think a new Saginaw is needed. But for now the steering is coplete.

Finally got my front hubs off (one side) to do my brakes, needed a socket I didn't have 2 1/16".
Thankfully I found one, ordered it through
4 wheel parts. Omix ada p.n.16711.01,
only $10.
The brakes shoes I ordered last year through summit are correct (p.n.AGB-53PG) so all I need to do is rebuild the wheel cylinders and hope the springs don't brake. And .......

Got one side done.

Sweet!

Front brakes done, coolant system done, starter wired up, all fluids filled- except fuel.
Got it to turn over, not trying to start it yet.
Just trying to verify oil pressure, still need
Fuel system, wiring/charging/glow plugs/gauges/
Lights/......, need new steering gear, and have the other rear end fitted, and lots of cosmetic.

Let's see it going down the road. This has been a really cool project to watch. Like to see what the get up and go is like.
