Who was that guy, at our last meeting, who was talking about someone who had a supply of double alternator pulleys and does he have any left?

Mike knows the guy with the pulleys, but he can't tell you under penalty of death. Hey Greg, did you see these?



Kevin the First, bring your carb and a rebuild kit, I'm sure we can put something together.

Kevin the Second, welcome aboard! That looks like something we can work with.

Check the bottom of compressor to see other bolts. If I remember right there are more.
Dont worry about the green items. They will not cause it not to move.

there is 2 bolts on the bottom side that has to be loosened to allow the compressor to pivot.

wish i had the money to get that brown interior cause the door panels he has r waaayy better than what's in mine.

Oh really? I actually came home, cleaned up the 'vert, and sold it And why'd you let my secret out? I got dirty looks the other day listening to 'Disco Stik', but who cares

thanx ray, i'm sure they will. i was surprised how the panels differ between what he has and mine. but i'm sure they're all the same as far as how they attach to the door.

They are from an 84/85 GSL, here's what they look like:



A little expensive to ship, can you pick them up when you are down for Zoomfest?

Greg the pulley guy ain't me. Check with Billy, he may have some connections.

that's a completely different design than what mine r, but i'm sure they will work. guess it's one of many differences from s or gs model and gsl. i wanted to try and work out a deal for 83gslrx7's interior pieces cause all the rear plastic pieces were in good condition and not faded.

At the very least you would have to cut holes for the manual window cranks. You should try to work something out with Greg the Elder, he wants the seats and I think the rest of his brown interior is in great shape.

I got back from Birmingham today.
Sorry Brett no t-shirt, I was super busy, I didnt even get anything for myself.
All in all it was fun, They introduced the Lotus Evora to the public here. Its a nice looking car but too expensive for a 2+2 in my mind.

welp, still anxious about the degreasing and spraying the engine...spots I need to avoid with the degreaser and water are:

-Carb
-Distributor
-Pulleys

any other things that I should cover? I kinda hate the idea of standing near my car with hood popped when all that's under it, is grease and gunk haha..
