      I've got my new air compressors mounted in the trunk and found some hoses with the appropriate fittings earlier today. Just need to find the right 200psi gauge and wire everything back up. The train horns should be ready to blow for ScottFest.

      A good cleaning inside and out will follow and I'll be all ready.

          The list is so long I wouldn't even know where to begin lol. There are so many parts relocated from the exterior to the interior of my car that it would take me a couple days to get them all back in the right spot. I think I'm just gonna skip that and stick a radio in the 92 GMQ instead. I can have that done in an hour or so.

              I meant to do a proper detailing on Scott's car, but I've been sick the past couple days and basically hiding indoors. Its vacuumed, but thats as far as I got.

                ugh, I procrastinated as usual... still got to pack and gather parts/tools to bring, hit walmart...
                At least I got the 85 cleaned out and wiped down inside... I wanted to do some more scrubbing and shampooing, oh well. All the outside got was a sponge bath... whats left of the paint needs a rub-down bad... the chips/cracks in the paint are spreading, even more rust starting to come through...
                You guys that haven't seen it in person yet might be surprised... it looks good in the pics because the white blends in all the ugly very well
