lips and centers.
2.5 hours taping per each wheel. PAIN IN THE BALLS, but they look sinister!

here's some gt40 irons for $100 in Rhode Island

http://www.theturboforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=109962.0


Yep I need a job this week. I want those heads...
Gonna buy that 302 of my buddys father. Its a 92 roller from a e250 van. His dad i guess freshened up the top end threw it in, it had a slight knock, then he pulled it for a 351w. For a complete bottomend, top end, and intake for 100 bucks I cant go wrong. I know the intake is prob a truck intake so thats no good to me, but I can throw it on craigslist and gain some money back, same with anything I dont use. Im getting a gt40 intake on trade for 2 refurbished sets of mark 7 dew wipes so im happy about that, and if i can get a set of gt40 irons, ill have a nice set up. Ill freshen up the block, maybe have it punched to a 306 and new pistons put in. Its gonna be a bit of cash, but I'll have a hell of a budget build up!
Not a bad motor
306, gt40 heads/intake, do mass air, and find something for a decent cam, and it should have more power then i'll ever need to move that tank!

checked out the motor
no intake, and timeing cover, other wise complete
has new cam, roller lifters, double roller timing chain, and its got different from stock heads. What heads, I dont know yet will find out once its home. He said the motor pulled much harder then the 302 he swaped in when he heard the knock on this one. He bought the motor built so knows nothing about it. I might luck out and not need to buy those heads!!

Pass rear quarter is DONE. Striped the rear quarter, wheel well, and pass door, and rust treated it. Taped it off for some black primer tomorrow, then undercoat below the tirm, and gonna try and blend some blue in so it doesnt look to bad.
Then drivers side.... Striped fter the door about 4 inches below the window to the bottom... Lots of bondo covering just surface rust like WTF. Assholes put so much bondo over surface rust!!!!! Made all the sooo much more a pain in the BALLS. And I figure out how the trim goes on.... Pulled the back seat, seat belts, and sail panels...... UGHHHH
But its looking freaking shagy!!! Took lots of pics but I'm to tired to post them, will do that tomorrow!

stripped all the rust and bondo off the door, and the 2 layers of paints and primers.... All the dark is the surface rust that they bondoed over, it doesnt have ANY pinholes, its SOLID, and the bondoed it and let it spread....

Found this cause I saw a little peaking out of the seam sealer, so I stripped the seam sealer out so I can glass over that hole.

Same thing here as the door, sanded out all the surface rust that was under bondo.

Sanded out ALL the freaking bondo they put all up the side over more surface rust, pulled the interior out so I could unbolt the mounts for the thin trim, since there was so much rust around them. Need to get new mounts for there.



From today, shows the rust proofer/killer I covered it with, and I washed the whole car cause it was covered in sanded paint, primer, bondo, fiberglass and seam sealer!
If you look at the second pic yu can see a area of light blue at the wheel well. Thats foam insulation I made a mold out of for the fiberglass to make that wheel well since they filled it with half a can of bondo before and it rusted through...
And you can see ther fiberglassed finished rear quarter.
