Made some very good progress today

Today we were able to make some very good progress. We finished up routing and securing the brake lines in the rear. We then assembled and installed the battery box and battery. We decided to move forward without installing the brakes at this point because we're still missing the disc's, don't ask  : (

So we installed some of the brake parts and the wheels. We then removed the dolly that we had built for the car and put the car on individual wheel dollies I purchased. Looks good. Our plan now is to get the engine and transmission ready to install. We're planning on installing them on Memorial Day morning. Going to see if we can line up another person or so to lend a hand with this.

                   Here you can see the new black dollies we will be using now.
                   You can see the dolly we built still under the car, which
                    we will now remove.


     
                                         Car now riding on the new dollies.

                                    Battery box and battery now installed.

               Here you can see the battery box behind the fuel pump.
              Where I have the fuel pump located is where the battery would normally go
               but we felt it would be to hard to work on it there.


                                   
                             Car pushes around fairly easily now with new dollies.
