I finally found a flywheel - through Craigslist.

Trouble is that it's on the wrong coast. The flywheel is on the West Coast, and I am on the Middle Coast.

What I really need is a trusted friend who can go to the seller, pay the cash, and get the flywheel for me.

Anyone? Bueller? - Paul H?
Paul it is!

Paul zipped out and got the flywheel for me. (Thanks again Paul!)

Now we just have to squeeze it into a Post Office flat rate box (the only AFFORDABLE way to ship something that is 30 lbs!)

Once I have the flywheel, my friend Rich and I will put it on the engine, match up the tranny, see what we need for a clutch plate, and start working on an adapter!

Project is finally starting to roll along!
