All of the harness is pulled away from the frame. Both the frame and harness are in exteremely good condition considering their age.
I also found out my transmission has led a particularly hard life.
That is the bell housing side, and yes, that one mounting ear is indeed a gob of slag drilled and ground to shape. Looks pretty bad. Oh well, I will deal with that when the time comes.
Here is the engine out of the car. Nothing fancy but very complete.
I also went and picked up my front fenders and rear bumper cover from the paint shop the other day. Wow did they do a good job over at D&D Auto cars. Pics coming later today.
