The Distraction June 19, 2020, 04:30:45 PM My '88 finally arrived from New Hampshire, and the first thing I did was buff n wax to remove(or at least temporarily hide) 32 years of oxidation. I proudly present, The Distraction, so named, because another friend says it will distract me from working on the '68 it sits beside in the shop! :shrug:, I'm an equal opportunity slacker, so they'll both be begging for attention!

Re: The Distraction Reply #1 – June 22, 2020, 09:27:38 AM VERY nice! I absolutely love it. I wish mine was the blacked out XR7....What are the plans for it? Quote Selected
Re: The Distraction Reply #2 – June 22, 2020, 09:47:13 AM For now, sort out the issues with the oil leak and a/c. Someone also painted the intake with chrome paint that looks like azz now, so I'll remedy that. May see if a paintless place can pop some of the more egregious dings out.Other than that, the plan is to enjoy a long time desired car!Oh, may replace shocks.....tended to "float" quite a bit.
