Okay well I finally got to take the car out and put some miles on her. I had a heck of a time getting her started. Took about 2.5 hours of messing around with it to finally get it to start. Doesn't seem to like the cold. Put the first 30 miles on it it seemed to run okay. It kind of seemed like it would cut out or the tune was funky. But i just kept doing as many vacuum pulls as I could. Brought it to my buddies work and changed the oil and the filter. Checked everything over. Then i put some more miles on her. The more I dove it the more everything seemed to smooth out and it seems to run pretty good. I ended with about 75 miles on it. All in all a good day :-)

Re: my new project
You're either very brave or incredibly antsy to be going on cruises with all this salt laying around.
Good to hear the beast is doing alright, though! |

Re: my new project
I honestly would be in the same boat. No salt is gonna stop me from being impatient and nothing a car wash couldn't clean up. Let me know when it goes on the rollers I definitely want to be there!

Well the roll cage was starting to rust so I got the bright idea of cleaning it up and painting it. This is a major pain in the ass lol. Hopefully it turns out okay

Got the primer on. Now we're letting it dry before we start with the color

Re: my new project
Color? Can't wait for you to announce to everyone. I think it will look cool!

Re: my new project
Well we are having some issues with the color I have chosen for the cage. It is cracking in quite a few places and pretty deep too. :(.
Maybe a weird reaction between the primer and the color idk. I really think it was just too cold. Tomorrow we are going to crank the heater up and and try and get the cracks to filled in and smooth out. Hopefully we can save it and make it look good. I really don't want to have to strip it down and start over I'll post pics when I get a chance |
