    (And s-springs CAN be "de-essed" with a little barnyard ingenuity and not much $, you should try it sometime?)
    The wedding isn't the problem, it's the honeymoon, the fact that I have a birthday 2 weeks after the wedding, and that we both shell out a shit ton of money for plane tickets and traveling expenses.

        Park the cars side by side, slide piano dolly under kmember, unbolt kmember, etc, cherry pick the front of the car up, wheel it over and under the other car, reverse the process. Piece of cake, via the internet. haha

          Now, to the swap en masse. When would be a good time to do it? I have a section of time in October (12-14) that should be about perfect. I can get the rear swapped in before then, maybe even with the springs re-arched by then. I've got a carb conversion computer interface en route (I HOPE) and everything else is there. I should have Ryan M. and Greg (JapTrapDriver) on board at least, maybe even Ryan S. and a couple other people. I'm banking on needing the cherry picker, and a few jacks and stands (I've got six stands, I think.) I'm sure I'll need heavy tools for the K-frames, still wondering how the hell that's gonna work out. But I don't wanna give up a fresh frontend, that'd be stupid.

          easy-peasy man...dont stress it. slow is fast. Take some time the night before to look over everything, get a good idea where to start and then dive in head first in the morning. If I was not a state away and if I didnt have a shit load of crap to do, I would truck the tool box and all my shit up there and hep out.

                My anniversary and birthday both occured during dragweek - and my wife still talks to me. If it was her birthday, perhaps not.

                Tread lightly big guy!

                  Knowing what I know now... I would have gotten married in June (my birthday) instead of September (her birthday)

                        So what does it mean when they start telling you that they put up with you?

                        I mean, yeah dear, I realize that. I also put up with you. Was that not part of the agreement?

                          It's better than my parents...they got married on Daddy's birthday...which is Christmas Eve. There's lots of festivities at our house around Christmas lol.

                            NO NEVER say you put up with her to her or someone that will tell her!
                            Might be a fact..just doesn't work..
                            All marriages are lopsided... Oscillates from side to side..

                                can I have your austin healy when you're dead? because Stin, you miss signs like that and you're one step away from stepping off a cliff.
