Just wanted to introduce myself.
I reside in Alberta canada. Bought me an 85 gs
That sat in a barn for 10 years . Same car I had when I was 16! Now hitting 40 and 2 years into my restoration, I have learned a ton on this journey.
Thanks to everyone here for so much helpful info
To date.
New 1.1 rebuilt with new old stock rotary housings with monster street port.
New rb full exhaust
New paint
And countless hours of cursing swearing drinking and bleeding.
Had the car up and running last year but the stock nikki clapped the bed this spring and it was way past due for an upgrade. Waiting on a new holley from rb
And pump an pressure regulator.
I look forward to being a member here.
Not many first gens in the calgary area.
Hope to see a few cruising this summer!
Cheers

 

Welcome!!! Any pictures of your 7 journey to share?

 

Made these as the carpet was crap

Good use of the cubby holes

Shines nice

 

Still a few little bits to finish up.

Really appears to be a very clean 85!! Looks like you're making some nice progress!!

 

welcome aboard. really nice fb. although i would suggest starting a build thread for showing this progress.

 

Thanks guys. I have been creeping on this board long enough but wanted to wait to join until the car was worthy of sharing. Like I said, sat in a shed for 9 years and was full if cat crap. Couldn't get the hood open, the smell was something I'll never forget.
I have really accepted the fact that if you want an fb owner that the only way to be an owner is to get your hands dirty and grow a set of ***** and get it done yourself. But why is it always the last screw nut or bolt is the one that is seized. 5 minutes from victory turns into 3 hours real fast. Thanks for the welcome!
