What? No updates?

No I haven't worked on this car in a long time, all summer in fact. But winter is here again, and she's up on jack stands in the garage. My garage was out of control and I tamed it down a bit. Time to start working on the car again. I need to make a list of everything that needs doing. Off the top of my head:

  • Finish body work above gas tank.
  • Reinstall tank, and new lines.
  • Reinstall radiator/intercooler assembly.
  • Start car
  • Remaining bodywork.
That's a very condensed list. I'll have to remount the interior, including the dash once the bodywork is done. My intent is to patch the car up proper, re-weld anything, and POR-15 to protect it. That's why I pulled the dash.

This car is to be semi-street legal. It should be mostly legal but I am not reinstalling the heater, and fan assembly isn't going back in. It'll never be winter driven, that's for sure.
