So, What Might Your Car Get In 2011?

[Cory]

Maybe:
- top end restored to factory new (valves, timing chain/etc., any potential issue areas and so on)
- same springs/shocks all around
- Bridgestone RE760 Sports
- new windshield

[derrith]

Euro conversion
paint
new interior
b36 engine management
a whole lot more track miles.

[Das_Prachtstrasse]

Off the jackstands.
Serious objectives are:

The turbo project completed,
New paint,
Refinished Hartge's with new rubber,
Leather wrapped center console and dash,
Refinished Seats,
Electric rear venetians or curtains, depends which is going to be easier to make.

[Dexter]

Euro conversion is the big goal for 2011

[Ted in T.O.]

A new owner.

[MicahO]

Windshield gasket and lockstrips, as well as a replacement dash, are in-process.

It's amazing how much a wee-little sub-1mm-chip in a windshield will reduce the strength of the glass. Yes, I happened to put my thumb directly under that spot while lifting the glass out, and popped a 12" crack.

So it's also getting a new windshield.

Working out materials with Kevin Chin for new seating surfaces.

Euro lights and grilles are en route.

A bunch of new rubber underneath, bushings, mounts, etc, and steering rack refresh. Have to place a big order with PartsDept this week, and get the car airborne once I get the dash swapped.

Oh right - and new RE760's mounted on the new wheels I got from PartsDept, and I'll sell the RS's.


This should all be done in time for driving season. Next winter will be used for chain guides and various motor-gasket-refresh.

built, going to pick all of the goodies out of this rusty turd and install them into a fresh chassis





don't have any pics of the new tub so just picture a red stripped chassis on jackstands here

That should be the other way around. Flares yes, side skirts maybe. I SRSLY.
