Rod, Don't give up if this is really something that you want. I too, am stalled on my Gremlin project and have had thoughts of selling out. Although it is moving along a little faster than yours, I only have the block done, crank, pistons, and camshaft installed. I have to wait until John (the man helping me) can give me time. That having been said, I spend my time on little details - removing small parts, cleaning, sanding painting them. Like the jouce bumpers, thermostat housing, control arms, springs, etc. Next I will be wet sanding the engine bay and working on the steering column and some other interior pieces. I seem to have a big pile of puzzle pieces waiting to go back together in their new home! There's always something to do, even if it isn't the 'big' stuff. Good luck to you and your wife, -Lu- --- In BaadAssGremlins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "hemmigremmie" <hemmigremmie@xxxx> wrote: > Whats up everyone? > Man Ive been car stressed lately!
