Can't wait to see it finished! Scheduled for late this year with Paul C. to restore the interior. I'll post lots of pics

Go Mikey Donuts, Go!

I like your name.

If you don't have the workshop manuals, get at least a CD set of the Jim Morehouse collection of docs for the car.

Consider starting your own thread as you document the project on your '85. It will make it a lot easier for others searching later for tips.
