Where the Dear and the Antelope play...

I've been waiting for a part I've order (last MAY) to come in. It's the adapter plate, connects the motor to the transmission. And since I'm not sure what the dimensions are, I can't really fabricate around it.
So it looks like I'm going to be doing far more restoration work on the car then I had thought. As you might guess, it's better to fit parts into the cars, then restore around the new dimensions.
Since the rust had to be dealt with and then the car painted (because of the climate), I was willing to give somewhat on that timetable.
It now appears that I'll have to do more. And hope everything fits later.
So I added a little power toy to the lab.
