Good afternoon Guys!
I feel asleep in the early morning hours when I posted the pics above before I finished posting so here are a couple more pics of Sweetheart. I have made the final flip and she is sitting right side up
YAY!!! I am glad to get that part behind me, I am working with limited equipment so the flipping of Sweetheart is the most challenging part of this build.
Coy, I don't know how your post got in in the middle of my rambling post but that is cool. If the wife ever finds this post I will say, No honey that was me that said that, it was Coy!
Sweetheart is like my wife she has gained a few pounds
and I don't handle her as easily as I did when I carried her over the threshold 40 years ago! It will 41 years next month as long as she does not read this post where I mentioned something about her weight!
If she happens to find this post she will make to the anniversary date but I may be pushing daisies before then.
How did I get off on that? I don't know
sometimes my mind works in strange ways like getting my 61 year old body in trouble because my mind still thinks the body can do what it did when I was 20. So the mind leads the body into doing things I used to and the body just cannot keep up with what the mind says body can do!
I thought that the body would stop allowing the mind to get it into so much trouble but I guess the mind is smarter that the body and body keeps doing what mind says. The mind is going to kill the body sooner or later!
Sorry I got off on a tangent there! Back the Sweetheart and the pics.
So here are a couple of pics showing that I did but the oil pump in before the oil pan went on. Sweetheart is so cute with her pan off and showing how clean her oil pump and crankshaft are!
And then the next pic shows that Sweetheart is more beautiful than ever with the final flip being completed and waiting for her 3 crowns (I mean heads) to be set!)
And speaking of 3 heads I bet Sweetheart can be like a 3 headed monster when she gets an attitude!
Man I am full of it today
I just can't stay on track
! Well the ain thing is I hope you Guys get a laugh or two from reading my crazy posts!
See pics below.

Hey Coy thanks for that tip! I would not have thought of that. Tips like that could really keep me out of trouble.
