More Progress:

On the lift!


Oil cooler installed, just need to figure out how I want to route my lines.  Keeping the pop-up headlights means I have even less space on an already small car.

Thank you sir! I am glad I am finally back in the same state as my car so I can get this thing finished! It's been sitting about 2.5 years now.
