Good evening folks,
Just a short post for a short day, had some other obligations this afternoon and probably tomorrow and with that this will likely be the last post for the week.
Couple of things, I just have to praise Jennifer for the care she's given this car over the years, it is in so much better condition than Shawnee B. was, it's impressive what a difference caring for a car over the years makes, this car has no rust at all, it has all the original documents that came with the car. If I get a chance I'll take some photos of them so you can see.
This morning I worked on straightening the drivers side splash panel, this piece is made out of aluminum and didn't hold up well to the force of jacking the car up.
 |
| Common bodge to get to the speedometer angle drive, look closely and you can see where the metal has been cut on either side of the round access port, why worry about it? Well fumes and heat from the engine can enter the passenger compartment, so I'll figure out a way to seal it up. |

| The splash pan on the drivers side, neatly folded. |
 |
| Straightened and ready for primer |
 |
| Primed and ready for drippy black paint as per original (no Kidding) |
 |
| Was able to get the seat out, a little bit of change |
 |
| Bottom of seat, the foam is decaying....new foam is on order as are the covers and diaphragms |
 |
| Seat rails, different from mine with the lock mechanism on both sides, barely move so will have to try to disassemble them and make them work. |
Cheers,
Lynn
