WOW, I'll say. Looks like Christmas came early this year at your house.

So what do you figure, about a week or so?

Where's the "little" shipment of parts? Behind the new chassis, new engine, new wheels and tires?

You're making my 109 jealous...

...don't forget about the new stainless exhaust, new radiator, and transmission ass'y..

Yeah, I figure a few weeks and I'll have it all together....just kidding. I have a lot of sandblasting/priming/painting to do so I may have to wait until Spring for re-assembly. I really don't feel like paying to keep the garage at 65-70 degrees all winter just so I can paint. I'll try to finish the tear-down this winter and get some of the mechanicals squared-away.

So waht are you keeping from the original - The LR badge from the grill?

That little lot is a bunch of money. Have fun.

The funny thing is that I actually had to buy one of those - the original was missing.

Looks like you have your weekends booked up.... What kind of tires are those?

[Eric W S]

They look like Michelin XZL tires in 750x16.

Nice choice.

[jac04]

^ Yes, XZLs in 7.50x16.
