sorry for slow progress guys. works kicking my rear right now. hope to remedy that soon though.... on to a few pics
got motor mounts cleaned,painted and installed
drilled,tapped,and installed nipple for steam line in water pump...
This hood latch bracket and bolt were so rusted up i had to put it in a vice and slam the wrench with a small sledge the whole way taking the nut off and the bolt out!!!! spent about an hour on the wire wheel on my grinder cleaning everything up, then painted and looks almost new!
in Glocks write up Im pretty sure he said you could unbolt this fitting on the steering pump and swap it for the fitting on the old one. I thought they were part of the pump. does anyone know for sure before I screw something up???
spending the rest of this week trying to clean up rust and just gonna hit the whole engine bay and frame with some of this rust converter for now.
Sometime down the road when I do my body work and get it painted Ill be replacing or redoing everything under the hood body color. For now I just wanna halt the rust and not put a sparkling engine into a dirty,rusty engine bay...
