All of the chrome and stainless is done. Picked it up from D&R on Monday. The crank, pistons, and flywheel will be balanced by Friday. Bodywork is almost complete, and will begin blocking it next week. I will have to hustle and buy the interior kit soon.

The pistons, crank and flywheel have been balanced and installed in the short block. Crank was aligned and torqued to proper spec. The head was completed and shave just enough to get a flat surface. Once engine is completely put together I may decide to send it back to the speedshop that did the balancing and ask if they can do a dyno on the bench.
The car is now completely stripped and being primed for additional detail work before paint. The complete interior kit has been ordered from Ames. Most of the parts have been received except for seat covers.
I will be ordering the WILWOOD disc brake kit from Summit Racing. Same kit I used on my '67 Buick Skylark. Chrome and stainless is all done.
My estimated time to complete the Skylark, and the LeMans was six months. Looking at one year now to complete.
