With a little effort, and some help I set the body on today :yes:

Things went pretty smooth, but I've got to do some adjusting to get the body-bolts all lined up. I've got 6 of the 8 started, but 2 won't quite line up to get the bolts in.

I can finally start doing some assembly now :cool:

Looking good Derek, what are the specs on the LT1?Stock for now, from totalled '95 Caprice w/ 21,000 miles. Just headers, programming and 3000rpm converter at this time.

When funds permit, I'll be doing heads & cam... after I get the 17" wheels, 13" brakes, and new interior. Damn this budget!

Awesome. If I recall, you have a big show deadline. Are you trying to make Power Tour?

I think he was trying to make his wedding and Chevellabration.Bingo!

We want to drive it on our wedding day (May 20th) and drive it to Nashville for our Honeymoon & Chevell-abration :thumbsup:

To complicate matters, things got real busy at work, and the other guy who does what I do here quit a week ago :rolleyes: ...so I've been pulling some late nights :faint:
