    -1 wheel bearing
    -2 front strut mounts
    - Install brake master cylinder
    - bleed the brake system
    - bleed the clutch system
    - put the engine lid and trunk lid on
    - install wheels
    - turn engine on and make sure no over heating issues.
    - tow to exhaust shop for custom exhaust
    - drive to alignment shop and get a 4 wheel alignmentj

    The one skill i need to learn. Welding... I know it's not hard. Just need to know basics on setting up the welder for your particular weld job and several techniques

    its not too hard to do. if its a mig welder, most books will tell you to adjust your wire speed and gas flow till the sound, sounds like bacon frying in a pan. its stupid, but its true. i have a performance welding hand book, ill ship it to you if you want. i havent read it in years, most of it is committed to memory.
