Donor shell is gone finally. Used a furniture dolley and a couple of wheel dollies to get it to roll off the lift and up to the truck.

Good color choice; I know someone with the same color for their chassis lolI got a couple quotes. One that could get it done for 1k with a week turnaround time. Another 3-4 week turnaround time for 700. Both with cardinal gr02.
In reality, you can start doing a lot without the harness. Just about everything, except putting in the rear firewall. You just need enough room for the harness plugs to squeeze through.Frame just got back from powder coaters and it looks great. Now I need to take a look at the build videos and see what I can do with the frame while I wait for the wiring harness to get back.
I did the same thing. I drilled out the rivnut and installed a new one.Made some good progress this weekend. Got the pedal box in, clutch and brake lines. Also installed the radiator. Unfortunately one of the bolt holes for the bottom of the radiator support bracket got cross threaded so I will need to try chasing those threads. If all else fails though it looks like I can drill through both sides and just put a bolt with a nut on it to keep it in place.

Mine too. The video makes it look so easy and simple.Oh man, breaking those hoses in the tube is a fear of mine.
I'm going to make it a bit nicer by adding an inline fuel filter (since LNF fuel systems don't have a fuel filter from factory) and some proper quick release fuel line connectors but this works fine for the first few starts.I hate using the factory fuel line from the pump to the fuel rail. Didn’t even think to put a rubber fuel line there is a few clamps.
Not sure, haven't replaced anything in the VVT system.Hey I was looking at your engine pick and noticed something. Are you running two of the same VVT sensors? Both of yours have black plug and mine have one black and one grey.
