I bought this car about three years ago. Found a rusted hell hole & tore the car down. Rust was repaired and paint was done. I ran out of money, so it sat for the last couple years. The 1.7 is rebuilt and I'm finally reassembling this sucker. Now if I could only remember how it goes back together!!!

I know how what's it like to not remember how it goes back together. Its only been a few months on the Creamsickle and I've lost some things. I look at other parts and wonder what they are...

Nice lift you've got there. I would probably just spend hours underneath it looking up at that clean undercarriage you've got.
Congrats on your accomplishment.. |

Looks great! Yeah the money thing can slow you down at the worst times. I usually remember things just in time to disassemble an hours worth of work for one little part. But I am getting good at it!

It runs!!
My mechanic is finishing the final D-jet hook up. He took it for a drive today. Still working out a few bugs, but it looks like I'm close. |
