Andy, No not letting the missus know yet as it might spoil my trip to Vegas in a few weeks, which she doesnt know about yet either.

Rick, I hope to get it stripped, blasted and painted, sitting on new suspension, wheels and tracks my the end of March next year.

I would prefer to put in a Meteor engine for reliability and ease of access to spares, but if a Liberty came up at the right price?. Just got to put in some extra hours at work to pay for it all.
