Nah just trying to get the car functional. Time and money are keeping me from doing everything I would like.

 

[Mopar_Gods]

I hear that yeah most of us have more time then money on our hands. Just think how nice it would be if we all could just win the lotto You will get there with time.

Spending today reclaiming my garage the past few weeks have obliterated it beyond recognition. droping the engine in has freed up some much needed space in there. got to clean also grease and oil is everywhere.

The next two things that HAVE to happen next on my car is finish my hood and mount it. and repair the vent galley so water no longer gets into the car when it rains. I have been tackling this car one section at a time starting with the front and moving my way to the rear. Getting the engine and trans installed has got me back on track and on schedule.

 

[Mopar_Gods]

I use a lot of orange cleaner and oil dry too Lol

Which of course is the right way to do it.
I know a lot of people who bounce around half finishing one thing then starting another....then ultimately nothing really gets "done".

Yes. it makes it easier to accomplish things when you focus on one thing at a time. I learned this skill from the Navy when we would break our aircraft down to "parade rest" for Phase inspections. It can be very overwhelming to piece a car back together if you have no plan of attack.
