Picked up a 87 Atlantic Blue quest two days ago around midnight. Its just a roller. Has dings which looks to be from hail on the roof and the hood. Had some squirrels living in it, found some acorns in the glovebox and under the wiper cowl. Plus the carpet had what looked to be squirrel shite all over it. The following day I started to remove the front end for small rust repair.

Fixed some rust and used rubber undercoating in the fender wells and on the frame rails. Then sprayed the front section and engine bay rails down with black rustoleum paint.

Was raining on Tuesday. Removed some more parts off the 88 parts car to get it ready to be picked up by the body guy. Replaced the sunroof shield on the 87 project. Also cleaned under the wipers and removed the squirrel shite and acorns from that area. Hopefully I will be able to finish the engine painting on Thursday and replace the rotors and pads. Ordered a Star-Orion "Abs" bypass line and a Mokeeh Egr block off last night.

Sprayed the rest of the bay, then it rained a few hours later. It was dry by the time it started to rain.

I'll sell you a brand new airdam just spray painted black for $200 bucks plus $20 for shipping. That's way better than you will find elsewhere, as far as I know.
