New springs are in (front came down 4 inches so far!), changed jets in the carb, leaned out the idle mixture, and swapped out some fouled plugs. All that's left is an alternator and a babysitter, and I'll be back out this Thursday. Lets see if we can hook at WOT this time. Finding out that these MT radials sure don't like marginal tracks...
 
Just got the bucket seat brackets of the spare passenger side floor pan. Cut out part of the brace to replace a piecein the Buick. I also put the power seat track on the DS bucket. I sandblasted and etch primed all the seat and console brackets and the floor brace. gonna grab some grub, and maybe cut 2 2004r transmission pans apart so I can make one deep one for the Buick. I have to get my lincoln weldpack from my brother to weld in the seat brackets.

I welded all those little holes shut on the inside of my front fenders. What a long day of welding and grinding them all back down smooth. :?

LOL, I...cut the rear package tray to finish the new rear 6x9 conversion and the dash parts...I don't think GSI is a site sponsor, but they did the interior stuff for my monte, teh way I asked them to, to match my paint, and heres some of it:

That dash insert looks good, I like it.

I pulled the intercooler, cold piping, and lower pulley and damper. I am doing the fast start conversion. Hotwiring the ignition module while I am at it. and gonna do some parts cleaning/painting. Also have a guy coming over to buy some rally wheels off me.
