    Snowball update thread #2

    Snowball is now ready drive now, we got it inspected. It needed a new passenger side tie rod end, and front brake pads. Also got the exhaust leaks fixed.

    Heres the parts that were replaced when it was inspected.





    Some of the car before I started working on it today



    I then replaced the grill with Old Red's original grill, this is just temporary I will be getting a new grill for it.


    The old one was badly damaged for a incident with a deer, when the previous owner had it




    Got some new plugs


    Cleaned the engine some





    All done and back together




    Old Red got some attention too, I finally finished the interior, had to replace some broken seatbelts, and I added a Tach cluster. Thanks Genevadirt!











    Thats all for now.

          Thanks MONSOON! Old Red's front end will be put back together as soon as I can get the front bumper cover painted, but the weather's been too cold to paint latley.

                        not to rain on your parade, but take those platnum autolites and toss them/return them and get yourself a quality copper core plug. i'd rather not see you burn a coil or ign modual because of those (crapy) plugs.

                          The car is looking good! By the looks of the grill the deer warning things didn't work! You can buy a new grill with shipping on Ebay for around $20 shipped.

                              Yes that's what I'm going to do, except the grill will be going under the knife unlike the new one I got for Old Red...
