So this past week I have had new exhaust installed, bought some used tires ( the old ones were L78-15s so I am guessing at least 30 years old) replaced the pinion seal, transmission output shaft seal, the carrier bearing and one u-joint and packed the front wheel bearings. I still have a transmission leak that I will get to soon. So it should be safe to drive now. When it warms up some I will start on the body work. I did think about lowering it and a friend of mine said I should call it the Slambulance so that's its name for now!

Glad to see you working on it again. keep us updated.
