Since I bought the car I have been doing small things here and there while I enjoy taking it out for drives. The car drives great. Things I have done are:
- Documented all faults with the car for future reference
- Wash and polish the car
- Taken apart and cleaned door panels and doors (many rigs here,
done over the years).
- Put four new tires on car
- Painted the center caps
- Done a tune up
- Put new brakes and bled the brake lines (some air in the lines)
- The reason for such an oil leak was because the oil pan nut was
completely stripped. Very minor rear main seal leak that will be taken
care of when engine is pulled.
- Made the spot lights operational
I like the way the car is coming but it needs lots of work. Most of the attention will be needed in the wiring harness and all other wiring in the engine compartment.
I think I also found the lost art of making a primitive CHP antenna clip for when the car goes into the garage.:D
