So close I can taste it!
Valve set done, cover, oil pan, rad all on. Lots of wiring and crap left. Today marks the 31st day in the shop so it wasn't quick by any means.

Yup, that's how I look at it. Wife's wanting me to go freak out cause it's taken so long but I just don't have it in me to care, every day I check in and have a ear to ear grin cause I'm so damn excited to have it done right. Take all the damn time you need haha.

Drivers sides together, just the plumbing on the passenger side and it's first fire time!
Started getting some paint on her now, you can see where. What a difference a few cans make.
RE: My c15 rebuild - RPM1 - 02-10-2017
would of been much easier to paint , before u started hanging all that stuff on it , way easier
RE: My c15 rebuild - RPM1 - 02-10-2017
don't for get to put something on frame so u don't get over spray , use tin foil on hoses and such easier then tape
