Round 1 over... We managed to get the rear end and driveshaft pulled and the engine. Tomorrow we're dropping the 4EAT and putting in the 6MT. While I swap out some seals and gaskets and install Tom's surprise. Pics will be up Sunday afternoon when I have a good block of down time. More updates will be coming all weekend.

yeah things are moving along on this car extremely quickly. Mostly due to the fact that Kerry and his friend Ryan are an excellent pair of guys to have working. We were able to tear this RUST FREE car down to nothing in no time simply because there is NO corrosion on the car. Well we are hoping to be finished up with everything tomorrow if we can so keep looking for more info

Tom

Today we kinda slowed our pace. Mostly because we pulled the Valve covers off and installed Tom's Surprise. By now you can guess it is a set of Cams. After that Tom spent the rest of the afternoon putting in the Pedal Box. So tomorrow we're going to put on the Group N Mounts and Clutch plumbing. Hopefully we'll have the Tranny in and ready for tieing up loose ends. There's a bunch of pics on my homepage and here's one of the Tom's Suprise.

Me either... lol. Today we're gonna hopefully get a fair amount of work done. The only bad thing is the hobby shop we're working at is only open till 530 today. So round 3 begins here in about an hour and a half.

finished for the day unfortunately but we have to wait on the shop hours not our ability. I am sure we will get some pics up tomorrow if not later tonight of what has been going on. Not as far along as I would have liked but that can be blamed mostly on my part. Anyway need to get ready to hit the barbecue

Tom

Well, today was a "take Tom around San Diego" day. The shop was closed so no work got done on the car but I did get some parts painted. My intake manifold is glossy black and Calipers are black as well.

Tomorrow is set up to be D-day. We should be done well before the shop closes. Either way we have a full 11 hours to work. Hopefully I'll be driving Tom to the shore for his Pacific Horizon sunset tomorrow night.

Gosh I sure wish I was with you guys. I miss San Diego, What a great place. I was stationed at North Island for four years and in that time I lived in Imperial Beach, and Oceanside. While on your test drive could ya take a picture of your SVX with the Coronado Bridge in the back ground....Please
