The engine is back in its rightful place. I needed a new fan shroud, clean the paint off some of the brake lines, and I have to paint the brake booster,resovoir, and the wiper motor (All came in good time). On the right picture is the new Heavy Duty T-5, new cross member and hanger for the exhaust.

Last but not least is the most essential part when strengthening a T-top is sub frame bracing. I got this tubular "weld in place" bracing from Western Motorsports.

Next picture are the body side mouldings on the car and the final painting of the front and rear bumper covers.

It was a relief when it finally was home the interior could finally be worked on as well as the mouldings around the windows. Stay Tuned......
