I'm trying to reel in the Visa before the interest free period is up but I'm not too worried about it. I'll gladly pay a bit of interest to have this thing ready at the beginning of the season vs the middle of it.
The EFI conversion is going to be cake but I am dreading the K-member swap a bit. I already sourced the new(older style) motor mounts I need to make it happen. I have a ton of power steering fluid so I may just disconnect the power steering lines and steering column to make that part a lot easier but messy.
Still a lot left on the wishlist like a race-weight hood and subframe connectors but I'm feeling pretty good about being able to actually drive this thing next month. Started pricing trailers too since $50 an event for a uhaul is going to get expensive. Couldn't seem to find any used car haulers that weren't ~80% of the price of something new. Verona is likely driveable but I'm afraid of that given the amount of leaks I've seen on this thing so far. This money pit might have an end at some point but it ain't here lol.
