I know you all dig pics, so here are some for you.

Kind of a gray day in KS today, but you get the idea. In these, you can see my broken fuel guage (thanks for your advice on this fellas), my broken center console lid, (I know Brian Trick has posted instructions on how to do this, I just have had the ***** to try and do that. ) A couple of the motor, freshly rebuilt 350, Comp Cam and lifters, thing was a disaster when I got it back, crank was ate up along with the two rear pistons. Guy who worked on it said it looked as if something was pressing up against the back of the crank, that maybe the converter didn't get aligned properly when it was previously rebuilt. Runs like a top now, 'cept can't get the quadrajet tuned just right, has a slight hesitation from stop, so not sure there....have the stock valve covers, air cleaner, and thermostat housing, may put those back on one of these days. Also a pic of the Rally Wheels that I picked up at a local swap meet here, only prob was they were green, but complete. Silver car w/green interior, (great color combo huh?) Actually, car was like a lime green with a cream colored top. Dad had it painted silver with black stripes, (including the Chebby stripes on the trunk), so I just left it. Anyway, I've said and bored you guys enough. Here are the pics. Can only do 5 at a time, so a couple posts will be necessary.

I am confused which is not unusual for me. First off the original post is over five years old and I don't see any mention or any pictures of a 53. What did I miss?
