Project 63 gets an engine

July 29, 2013 Uncategorized

Well it is getting close now, we got the engine back from the machine shop this week so this weekend project 63 got an engine and a new 5 speed transmission. I am down to the last few things, install the exhaust, fill up the fluids, bleed the brakes and it is ready for initial fire up. Hopefully we will have the bumpers back from chroming this week then we will be on the road next weekend.
