    hey

    thanks for the forum!

    a guy from work drove his Grandmas car up from Manitoba with his Mum on a learners license 10 years ago

    he bought new rotors, calipers, pads and what-not but the car got parked

    so after a few years of listening to the old man grind him over his pos car he gave it to me



    160k km's on the 302 and baby wants to run!

    anyway - it's my new project

                it's about ready for an inspection except for that 2nd mirror

                i fully intend to drive the drafty bastard this winter :P

                biggest issue is worn body mounts - she got left up on uneven ground for a few days and now the drivers side door is catching on the front panel...we're thinking hockey pucks

                it's a treat firing sleepy 8's - a splash of gas and two turns of the key

                after 6 years of sitting i kinda' almost wish i took a recording

                thanks for the welcome!

                  they should let the passenger mirror pass inspection since that is how it came from factory, my '81 merc is the same way.
