My rear valance was a little too far gone. PO took it off so he could put on 4 tip monza exhaust. Then left it outside for years. Thankfully Craig and Camp914 is only about a mile from the body shop. Thank you Craig (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Cary Kutter freshened up some of the suspension for me. The car will be going to his shop for me to do some work with his guidance. Getting excited to learn from him. Hope to get lots of install photos and possibly videos for the new website that we have been working on forever now. We will be putting in one of our rebuilt steering racks, Stainless steel fuel lines and getting the wiring harness back in place.

Tank looks like new. Now I just need to coordinate the bodyshop, the guy I am borrowing the enclosed trailer from and Cary's schedule so we can get to the reassembly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

Some updates
Cary Kutter cam out to the body shop last Saturday with his enclosed trailer and pick up the car. He brought it back to his shop, Middle Motors where we will continue the project. He has been gracious enough to let me work on it on his lift and give me guidance that I will definitely need a lot if. Thank you Cary. Attached thumbnail(s) |

A few nights a week to get work done, but a lift, all the needed tools and help when needed. I could do this every night

The car is in great shape and all of the nuts and bolts are coming right out with ease. Going to need all new bellows for all the cables in the engine bay. Anyone know where I can get some? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sunglasses.gif)

Engine bay ready for some love. Rubberized undercoating or bedliner?

Haven't updated for a little while so here's what has been going on. Found some damage to the bottom of the driver's side suspension. So we (Cary) pulled it to replace with the parts I had him clean up already. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?s=&...t&p=2448492 and http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?s=&...t&p=2450682
