If you do turbo be careful those l26 connecting rods are toothpicks compared to the l67 l32 and l36.

Well, it's not so bad once the wax is on. The puke slides right off.

put it on the lift and made a list of eveything thats wrong with it.
while i had it in the air i replaced the left front outer tie-rod. i should have done it months ago when i did the other side but it was striped out and had to be cut off(aka major PITA)

That's super easy to do sawzall ftw

i had to cut the rusted bolt off the part that goes though the knuckle...made lots sparks

Cut just below the knuckle. That why sawzall ftw no sparks.

i had to cut just the bolt off because i needed the threads there so i had something to hit the old part out of the knuckle

Started a lil project on the fusebox..


pics when its done.

pics now or no project was started

I use an air hammer

Sick all day flu like, poor car hasn't run in 2 days.

i hit a deer need a new window/door/fender/paint job

Friday I got the car ready for the heat exchanger to go on. Can't get under the car for more than 5 minutes or I get sick. I think it's an inner ear thing. Got to remember to get some dramimine.

Cleaned it up a bit. Pulled the wiper arms to spray them when I get a chance since they're faded. Realized oil pan gasket is leaking...ill take care of that. Waiting on valve springs to come in and ill drop those off the machine shop so he can finish my heads.

Looked at it out the window. Cursed it for not porting its blower by itself, not installing its own headers, nor having very good heat in this 15 degree weather.

looked at it in the garage and asked it how it was feeling today, the car muttered, "what's up?"
