85 Texas car progress
finally got around to pulling the drivetrain today. Also pulled the dash to replace the heater core and factory wiring harnesses. Thanks to SSPAnthony for coming over and doing mosty of the hard stuff !!
Will be pulling the k-member and stripping the engine compartment next. The body work is done on the shell and all the other body panels and it is almost ready for paint. I want to get it on the rotisserie to soda blast the engine compartment and bottom of the car next.

check this one out. I am replacing every inch of wire in this car. Just about every harness has been repaired or is damaged in some way. Roman saved this one from certain death when he drug it off the blocks and out of that back yard in 2004.

Hector,
I traded for the 85 TXDPS car in 2005. It has been sitting since. Roman did a bunch of work to it prior to trading it to me. Black and white slicktop unit with regatta blue interior. The 83 is a rare one. I am not ready to say it's mine till I get it here. I am hoping to get it in the shop within the next 30 days or so. It is also a two tone marked unit that is the only one I know of that exists at this time.

Question - Not to hijack your thread, but does the dash HAVE to be removed to get to the heater core on an 85? Mine has been bypassed for years, but I would like to remedy that.
