progress report! got her cleaned up a bit, hood off, interior out, windshield track cleaned real good for new windshield.




here's how we flushed the fuel lines, which were full of 20-year-old gas and who knows what else. feeder line from gas can through new fuel pump (thanks camp914! ), through system, return line to milk jug.




... and here's what came out of those lines. yum!




got the rocker panels off too, for probably the first time in this car's life. found the usual pile of dirt, rocks and crap per side.


and here's the passenger rocker, cleaned up. i expected much worse, these look great.


and finally, here's my little helper.


that's all for now. mucho thanks to jim chambers for his help thus far. engine tune-up in the near future, hopefully we'll find out why the distributor is not sparking.
