I have bounced back and forth from building the engine to getting stuff painted.
I am building a MASSIVE 1.7 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) and restoring the engine bay and most of the other areas of the back end. This car has very little rust so patching is minimal. I'm hesitant to start a resto thead, there have been so many, but here are some pics. Attached image(s)

The engine bay is close to ready, just a few more things to do. New( to me) e-brake cables where installed and all the old wire harness covering was removed. There is the corrogated stuff over the wires now. I added a second blower motor, I don't like having to towel the windows when they fog up. The blower motor where completely dissassembled and cleaned. It's unbelievavle how much oil was in those things. The gray stuff on the firewall is Quit car, about 4 coats. It's neat stuff, water based and east to work with. There is quite a big difference is the sound of the metal when you knock on it, it feels more solid. Attached image(s)
