                I'll have some more progress this weekend. Right now the parts are slowly being painted that have been removed. This weekend we will take down the engine bay all the way and probably some other trim that needs to come off for the chassis to be painted.

                We haven't located a motor yet nor have I really been looking. I really should get on it.

                    Perfect candidate for a S5X swap as you have planned. If I were you I would go S50B32. Almost as much HP as the S54, no hassle. Nicer looking, too, IMO.

                      The lack of updates is giving me fresh baked bakery feels.

                        He already showed it getting towed away so bakery has nothing to do with it.
