Soo.. I've posted a few times on here, got my turn signals working fine while I was off with a bugger'd shoulder... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) Now my shoulder is good so its time to dig into this thing... I've now realized that the tar coating the underside of the car was doing a good job of covering up some real big problems.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I have holes in both right and left rear longs, both rockers, front trunk, floors, firewall.. Transmission I'll have to rebuild, but other than leaky pushrod tube and oil cooler seals... the motor runs strong.. I'll post up some pictures, I'm sure you'll all want to see.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
Here is a pic after I drove it home... rear wheels arent folding in and only the right door had a tight gap at the top... didnt look tooo bad when I looked at it.. figured some rocker work and I'd have er' back running in the summer... Attached image(s)
