I just got back from Greg`s .....we finished the entire chassis (Minus the Power Steering). All fluids are filled and the body is now ready to be lowered onto the chassis.

The weekend pics....

Looking great Dan!
One question
Did you find evidence of an old JD sticker on the driver side valve cover?
All the originals I'm used to seeing were on the passenger side rear.

Good eye Rick.....these obviously are not the original valve covers.....once the original Valve Covers get rechromed they will have the correct decal on the passengers side.

If he wasn't a friend I wouldn't have questioned, but I like to bust his chops once in awhile.
