Cleaned it up. My "new-to-me" Aspire that is! I picked it up yesterday for the brake/suspension swap. For $350, I'm surprised how well it drives.

Pieced together an exhaust using what I had left on the parts car. Started working on brake lines but they're rusting bad in several spots so I'll be yanking those off the parts car. Reset the valve timing. It was off by quite a bit. Put the straight white hood that came with the car on. Beat out the top bar so the hood latch lined up again. Tranny fluid change, a good pressure wash and general underbody inspection. It's gonna need some bushings up front and some of the other usual work. Runs good, but needs some tuning. It drove surprisingly well minus no brakes. What a busy day. Hitting it again tomorrow since I'm off work...

Came back from snowmobiling, left the trailer on and also left the whole
set up at the bottom of the hill, a dead end but easy into the house. The end
of a nice sunny day, clear roads, perfect!
Last night it snowed and I might be stuck down there!!Reflex paint by Langeman...Lifted...Tow Rig

Took a little break today. Set the ignition timing and fiddled around with the idle screw. Still whirring around 2.3k with the screw backed off all the way. Carb spray vac leak check. Seems the brake booster hose is the main culprit. It's getting a fresh batch of spaghetti later this week. All original hoses!
