While I have only been to the great state of Texas a few times, I would have guessed that AC would be something you would like to have..........

Hi

The more urgent stuff to put it back on the road again:

Replace all clutch components (waiting for the rest of the parts from Roger)
Replace gearbox synchros (parts from Roger also)
Replace fuel lines (you guess it, kit from Roger)

Hopefully late September I will be driving it again!
I miss it so much….

Regards

PS: a special “Thank You” to Roger, for being always available and helpful with parts recommendations, advises and an excellent shipping service!

Ok, for this year I plan to do Euro adjustable lights, carputer and get the twinscrew installed.
That should about finish mine except for some sway bars and then the interior work.

^^^ that's real value-added progress there. Nice list.


I've got to transport 4 of them to Indiana.
Mechanical and electrical is pretty much completed.
Although, a couple need another set of MM's as well as their next TB's.

(tonight we get into mirrors, with 4 out of 10 broken in some way)

Then, we focus on leak stoppage. Rear quarter seals, heater core box seals (biggie) and hatch seals.

Then cosmetics, interior on 3.
Paint on the 4th, making it a Chiffon white, spoiler free 84 -- AO tribute car.

The 5th one gets prepped for Summit point DE in spring, daughter and s-i-l will run it there.


All of them are the same body style, so I get some repetition in before my old brain forgets. I've got the 84 electrical, Euro and USA, nailed and mapped. The other two are 85/6 electrical and that's burned-in my head now too, thanks to the CD's.

^^^^ Reassemble parts back into a cohesive unit that *hopefully* runs like a Supercar! Looks are a work-in-progress.....
