Vette(s): 78 silver anniversary L82 black int
Dropped my rebuilt L82 and tranny in today. Its been a long long road. Plan on start up Saturday, then off to the exaust shop.  Still cant drive for a while though. While waiting on machine work for my engine I got antsy and ripped the seats and carpet out of my car. Carpet is here and seats are in good shape. just need to install them and all the interior trim that is now dyed. Just wanted to warn you all that I'll be on the road soon so buckle up and wear your helmets.

At least you should have a longer driving season in Texas.   Hope you get it on the road soon.
