Thanks Ian ... This one has been stalled long enough ... At least all motors, trannies & differentials ... Are inside the frame ... :good:
 
Yes, more than likely ... I haven't found any radiators yet either ... But there are two exit scoops at the rear that looks like She had a flow through design ... :rotf

I did a little painting touch up on the parts that still need to be added to the motors ....
 
Ok As Promised ... More Pictures ...
