Think I’m going to have to cross mine off the VIN registry.
Fuck, I love this car. Corrosion already starting everywhere the water made it up to. Going to hose it down with fresh water and spray some WD-40 wherever I can. Looking for any tips on how to preserve as much as possible. |

Changed oil on the engine and trans yesterday. Lots of water in both. Spark plugs came out easy and I was able to turn the engine over by hand. Good amount of water splashed out. It started to rain so I shot some WD40 in the cylinders and put the plugs back in. I’d like to flush the oil one more time, fill the cylinders with oil, and get everything hosed off ASAP, but trying to deal with too much at once right now.
Been raining every since so can’t get any more work done. Spent time cleaning up the apartment. We woke up the night of the storm with water on the floor. Ended up with about 2 inches inside. Didn’t get past the baseboard, but it’s getting inspected tomorrow to see if it’s habitable. Been staying with upstairs neighbors in the meantime. Thank god for beer, even if it’s warm. |
