Yep, Richard is a good guy.

 

Here's some more pics





Got the most of the electricals taken care of. Getting some fuel in her and hopefully she'll run~

 

Nice FD, hey I text you back, I do have the trim for your door. Where is the question? I need to move some stuff around. The motor looks good aleast its all there. Did you get new belts? Im ready. I think I saw a cheap rad. here in texas like 150.00....So you can have a after market one or does it? New hoses also. New rad cap. Oh yeah DAMN you cleaned the hell out of the back bins. Looks like you could eat back there. Hey you know what, I have a arc air box with two k and n filters I wonder??? We should try it. Did you need a front bumper? I got one. LOL

 

Thanks, and sounds like a plan? If i can sell some stuff to get some cash anyways

 

Updates?

 

Interior is near completion. missing the foot rest, window switch, and the pieces that go behind the outside door handles on the inside. The fuel pump was rusted and bad so changed that to a brand new one. Car turns over, has spark, i hear compression but need to get a compression test. Fuel gets to the engine but don't think its getting inside.

If i use some starter fluid, it buckles a bit. My oil cooler leaked all my oil into my garage so I'm waiting to get that in. Going to check the injectors now to see if they're working and go from there. I'll get some pics up of the car

 

pics would be nice

 

Impressive, how did you get the red part of the interior so clean? It looks brand new!

 

hope you get her together

 

k, took some pics but haven't uploaded them yet. got the fuel injectors cleaned and rebuild. Lost a gasket that goes in the banjo bolt of the fuel rail...so i'm guess i should get it lol so it doesn't leak everywhere and catch fire. Putting the rats nest back together. Hopefully she'll fire up..

On another hand, got some r1 twin oil coolers coming and cwest headlights with 8k hids..

 

oh, and the interior, i just first scrubbed with a soft sponge with just water. Dried it off...then oiled them back up...like 6-7 times till they shined again and didn't look dull

 

keep up the good work.

chuck said mines is almost done

 

for real? lol, thats awesome. finally got some brake calipers, going to clean them up and repaint. here's some pics, i need to re oil some interior pieces.


Finally got a door handle. locks are coming.

Rats nest finally out







Started to polish the upper intake manifold....takes forever

And here's what i was doing on the day before the 4th

I'm glad you got it running! Is that Capitan Eliot's place where you are standing with the fish? The place looks familiar

 

I got your text. But I'm low on texting so I didn't text you back :p

 

Lets see some updated pics of the engine bay.
Congrats on getting it running

 

Capitan Eliot's is closed down, just a 411.

Been closed for a few years, when fuel cost went up they came down.
