Convette Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Hot pinkness ... Yea what's the plan with this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchi934 Posted January 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Well right now Im just cleaning, taking inventory, and checking out what i actually ended up with. The motor is recently rebuilt, but never started. The hatch was left up during a rain and now the inside smells like grandmas leaky basement. So getting the interior out and thoroughly cleaned is priority number 1. After I get a good grasp of what I have exactly Ill make a more direct plan, but for now I'm daydreaming about something with 16 valves and a nice new color scheme (though single stage this time.) Heres todays work:Notice the mold on the paper... http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/8031/sdc11766g.jpg Before and after vacuuming... http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/2059/sdc11767.jpg http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/5644/sdc11768l.jpg http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/2417/sdc11770q.jpg http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/1536/sdc11771f.jpg http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/3373/sdc11772z.jpg Next is to get the carpet out, luckily there hasn't been any rust so far or evidence of it holding water in the car... and finally..a dramatic sibling picture. http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/1654/sdc11764.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
