Let the tear-down commence!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif)
After months of waiting, the yellow monster arrived from Houston, TX. Previous owner stripped all the D-Jetronix off & replaced everything (I mean everything) with 2 EMPI carbs. The owner previous to this guy was in Alabama. I was happy to see that the battery is sitting on a well constructed shelf with no apparent rust. I'll take some more photos of the body once I get into it. I pulled the driver seat to remove some speaker wires running under the carpet & seat into the engine compartment. Tomorrow I'm going to try to get the light effects off the car. Previous owner thought it would be cool to put illuminations under the left & right sides of the car. Many more days & nights of work & pics to follow!!  |
