Guys, after 9 years, I'm finally at the stage where I've gotten rid of all the ghosts in the closet I've had with this car since buying it.
First the electricals, then sagging suspension, then leaking saginaw, then leaking tranny, ohh, and then blowing up the engine, then more useable diff gears (was 4.11), then brakes which didn't brake, then rattles, then some rust. Changing the trunk floor was my last ghost.
This is about as good as it's going to get with mine.
good from 10 feet away...
(as long as you're squinting and the sun is in your eyes!)
Once I finish off this tail light led project, I'm looking at smarter ways to "improve the car", (I mean without the bank manager bitch-slapping me again), like removing excess weight whilst still keeping the "Henry" look. Is there any dead weight I can remove?
(other than the Mrs of course!)
What about nitrogen in the tyres? what's all that about? does it work?
They charge about $10-15 bucks per tyre here.
Or is it just because they know Aussies will fall for anything?
cheers to all... and to those going through the process, I do feel your pain brother...
