We've been working on a '74 2.0 that we picked up a year ago in VA. Solid for the most part, floors are nice. Over the past 2 months we have been doing some work on it.
The goal is just a nice driver. It will be the original Phoneix Red (which is more orange than red). It will be powered by a 2.0 FI, if I get can the D-Jet figured out. I'll update this thread weekly or more often, whenever something notable gets done. Heres what we started with |

The last bit of rust repair that the car needed was a section on the front panel. The metal rotted away around the passenger side bumper mount, and also rotted out the adjacent corner of the headlight bucket. The offending metal was cut away and the bumper mount and the surrounding area were wire brushed and primed. A patch was cut and welded in.
Still need to finish up welding inside the headlight bucket. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/santa_smiley.gif) |
