I am trying to get car ready by mid june. I am looking for someone to give me a hand with some odds and ends. Some mechanical, some body.

Not alot of body help around other than bolting on panels.

What kind of mechanical work are you looking at?

What kind of body work do you need to do? I know a few things about body (can help with dents, fiberglass, paint etc.) and even more about mechanical, but I'm a good hour away from ya.

I am just about ready for paint. I just need to find a way to haul it to paint guy. I have most of body off it. So I would need a hand aligning panels. Mechanically. Where to start. It runs, and shifts. Actually motor sounds good. I have to get a new bracket for detent cable. Right now I have 882 heads , but am looking at getting some 416s . That is where my knowlege ends. I know how to take everything off but it is putting it all back where I have problems. I don't know how to do all the adjustments. Also I don't know how to determine what cam to go with heads and what else I should do while heads are off. I am on a semi tight budget, unless anybodys got some parts and needs some remodling done. I am thiinking heads because I am getting a lot of air in my cooling system. I also am hopefully buyiing new springs this weekend so with that I will need to replace shock, struts, bushings, etc. A lot of this stuff is as time and money allows but I really would like to at least get it road worthy so I can do some of these summertime cruises and attend some car shows.

Also thanks for the replies guys. Says a lot that people are willing to help out another. My dad died when I was 19 and I wished I payed more attention when I was a kid. He was a hotrod type of guy and was extremly mechanical. I am now 33 and got my first " hot rod" so I enjoy it a lot.
