Default Rebuilding My Knuck

What do I think? Well from the looks of it not only do you have a Knuck but a sweet *** garage to work on it in. Looks like your spoiled and I'm a tad jealous.

Can't wait to see it when it is done.

Wrapped the exhaust....wrapped it from the back to the front....don't ask....just stupid....if it becomes a problem I'll rewrap it later. Finished the motor mount minus the pinstripe and made a pretty cool stop for the brake lever....at least I think so. If anyone was wondering the brake lever pushrod came out of the master cylinder so I set that up so it won't happen again.
