Yes sir!

So I decided to do a little OCD project today

delrio_bird

Cleaned some coolant hoses and the TB

delrio_bird

Found another parts car


And managed to fix all my vents, rip out the brittle dashpad and get a leather boot for the shifter.







Next is to get all this Texas dirt from behind the trim panels...started with the A-pillars



And Finally got a signal stalk with the cruise control connector on it...cant test that til I get my Flex plate fixed

More tooling around the junkyard today:
Center Console finally complete


Sunvisors!!



And a parcel shelf!

delrio_bird

So Ive had a lot of progress going on for some time:

Found a wrecked Camaro with uber parts!!






And the Before and After on my center console.

I'm doing the exact same thing lol. I'm striping down everything and getting all the dirt out of the nooks and cranies.

Found a new wing

delrio_bird

Boiled the hood stoppers to remove 20 years of crud....came off clean


Hit the 160k mile marker today. Still running strong!


And retrieved a new 3rd light (right).

Its been a while since Ive checked out this thread. Great progress! If you want a TA spoiler, you should take the entire hatch.

delrio_bird

Im taking the entire hatch. I need the glass too because that one has a defroster

delrio_bird

Nothing too new but the old boss had a nice RS....I had to

delrio_bird

Oh gaskets....I am glad you are done

I applaud your attention to detail refreshing a lot of frequently overlooked things. Very nice build!

K_Boss01

Very nice, clean car man. I too also commend you on your attention to detail with your cleaning. It's always nice to see someone truly take care of an older car and restore it, whether it be a 5, 6 or 8 cylinder

Been a while since Ive posted. She's just been daily driven lately. Have to really get back into it on my vacation.








Got the tail end pretty clean and fresh. Need to really do a permanent paint job on this car though.





Got the door trim stripped. It was all dry rotted for 20 years in Texas heat. Makes it much easier to wash the car too.





Also managed to get vandalized while at work the other night..they stole my stereo and broke the bezel, dash and console lid. Two very awesome f-body owners are sending me a bezel and OE Delco radio free of charge. Restored faith in humanity.





Looking at this 3400 out of a Monte to do my top end swap

delrio_bird

So my interior is nearing completion with my stereo back in order. Came out of a C5 Vette.


And I figured Id break her loose to "Highway to Hell"
