    Ah. Sorry to hear that. Life has a way of getting in the way of things like this. At least you have the engine in place in the car. That is a big step right there.

    Thanks to you both. Death comes for all of us at some point. She had a good life and I was able to be with both her and my Dad when they both passed.

    I am hopeful that I can get back on it soon. I really don't have that much left to do other than putting everything back together.

    Made a bit of progress over the weekend, surprisingly. Bolted up transmission, starter, shift linkage underneath. Hopefully more to come sooner rather than later.
