Re: Project DB1 restoring DD
yeah i'll have to try and snap some pics tomorrow. she def. is gettin big! i just wish i got to see her more. sucks not seeing her every day anymore but its def. for the best that her mother and i are not together.
i need to get a vc gasket for my ls too. i also need my timing cover gaskets as well so i can at least put on my lower cover. thats the only one i'm really worried about.

Re: Project DB1 restoring DD
got some work done today, finished some wiring and put the bay back together just need belts and pcv hose, test fit the front end only reason bumper sags on driviers side is cause im missing the piece that holds it up
Herb heres my fan i was tellin you about
it has to spread the air around this place
it was lookin a little rough so touched it up
Finished cleaning the wiring up
took the rear end appart to see if there was any damage found a small dent and think the rear bumper support is pushed in a little not to worried about it atm il fix it later, also befor the trunk wouldnt lock on the latch so i had to take it appart and ram it in lock it then bolt it back together...... it will work tell i get a new latch
threw hood and bumper on lines up great
