I got the JCR console brace in the mail last night and got it put in. Console is solid as a strippers pole. I just forgot the the pics.

Picture doesn't do it justice. It was about 55 degrees slope. Huge *** rock behind passenger rear tire so it got a bit stuck. They decided to winch me out.

what's going on with those hoses? Is the heater core not hooked up? and why does it look like a hose is coming out of the top of the thermostat housing into the intake manifold?

I dont have a heater core, i live in Florida. The heater hose going to the manifold is because its a manifold heater, it's old technology that heats the manifold below the carb or TBI intake opening. As the fuel hits it from either the carb or TBI, it boils/vaporizes it so it doesnt puddle up. You would know it better as atomization.

So basically like a controlled heat soak?
