The previous owner told us the hell hole and longs had been done and he seemed like an honest car guy. So that was dumb and naive of me. It was clear that a bunch of work had been done around the hell hole, which looked good from the engine bay. When we got it home and on the lift we were faced with a rusted out lower firewall.
Ordered a firewall repair panel. We pulled the engine today and cut out the lower firewall and it’s pretty ugly. |

After taking to summer off on this car, we spend the past month prepping the body for paint and shot the paint on it today. The PO had painted it something similar to Laguna Blue, but we returned it to its original color. This is single stage 2K urethane. Looks like with a little wet sanding and buffing we’ll have a pretty decent paint job.
I really like this color. Tim Attached image(s) |
