Hi to all from High Ridge, Mo-
Well after @150 manhours of dedicated resto my 79 is going to paint tommorrow!! Here is a list of whats been done:
New Carb, C4, Alternator, Battery, Water Pump, Belts/Hoses/Plugs/Wires, Voltage Regulator, Temp Gauge, Brakes/Lines/Hoses, Exhaust, Tires/Wheels, Stereo/Speakers, Saleen Wing, Police Interceptor Floor Plates, Dash Pad, Door Pins/Bushings, Carpet, Tie Rod Ends, Door Handles, Window Trim Surrounds.
When I stripped the car down I was shocked to find only 4 quarter sized spots of corrosion, all surface, The car was from Arizona, she has 96K miles and runs like never before!! Drives 70+ smooth as silk & stops very well.
It was a brown/copper metallic with dark red (firethorne?) & brown leather interior. Now she will be PPG Gloss Black w/ Flat Black trim , wing & hood center with 88 turbines.
I will attempt to post before/after pix when paint is completed late next week,Please offer any suggestions
