I can’t say my progress will be the swiftest, but as soon as it stops raining all the time I can actually get some work done. Hopefully fixed my transmission line leak. The solution was much like everything; if at first you don’t succeed, throw tools at the problem.

Reinstalling the front wheel wells is an ongoing process that is taking way too long, thanks to the shitty design.

I bought this ghost detector to exorcise the demons from my engine.

The list, as it stands

To drive:

Tires, tune, body bolt repair, aftermarket dipstick modification, some remaining front end assembly, brake check, fluid/leak check, coolant system test.

For inspection:

Fr ont brakes(and wheel bearings while I ’m at it ) , heater blower motor diagnosis/repair, exhaust, windshield washer system stuff, ( possibly front suspension bushings/tie rods/ball joints if they fail )

For driveability : replacing diff fluid/powersteering flush, powersteering rebuild, replace starter motor, wire electric choke, replace window felts, trunk springs, weatherstripping

And after that, you know, literally everything else. Make better choices than me oppo.

I feel your pain. I bought reproduction inner fenders and they fit like shit. It was a pitched battle to get them on to the fenders and that’s with the fenders off from the car. I ended up drilling new holes in a lot of spots.

I wouldn't blame the repros lol. The factory fender wells fit like shit too.
