Sound Quality of an AM Mono Radio, You Can Feel The Bass From That 4x10... lol

Good News:

I Installed my Center Console that came from a 1980's AMC Spirit. The current gauges that iv tested are the Clock, and Vacume gauge. both work, had to disassemble the clock and free up a gear and put some lubricent in it hope to prevent it.. havn't tested Oil gauge yet. This isn't Wired up yet, but ill be sure to show you when they are.

Bad News (!!!Updated 3/28/09!!!):

 

Finaly Dropped the gas tank for the horror, gas tank need to be replaced or someone besides me that has expertiece in the gas tanks, dropped it and saw this.. top looks good but the bottom... is in need of help...

Well i went in search for another gremlin to steal parts from, i found 3 gremlins total, 1 was another persons parts car, another a chevy place was trying to sell for 2.5k and another at a salvage yard. so i pull the tank and hope for best. well it also has holes in the bottom of the tank so i think great failed... but then i looked again, the bottom of both tanks are the same size and shape as the top, so i cut them both in half and am going to use my original top as a bottom, only because if i decide to go to something different the other tank had a return fuel line. so now all i have to do is weld them together.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ii6NevPb9sI  - i was still messing with the timing and after this about hour later we had her running and shifting without stalling. E Brakes are my system of stoping thank god they work.

 

 

Was parked 15 years ago,

it has the I6 232

 

and over all the car is really clean, but does have its bumps, scrapes and dings. but no major rust anyware. i have took a few photos of damage but overall i think i can pull alot of these out there is this cracked headlight plastic. under neath the bumper has damage, but no rust and i should beable to repair, same with rear, underneath bumper has damage. but not rusted and i possibly able to repair.

 

 

Bought and Found in Beaumont, Texas

Hi thanks for posting a comment for Lil' Runaway. Yes, we cruise on Saturday nights at Taco Bell on Beckley Rd. in Battle Creek, unless there is a show someplace else that night then most cruisers go to that show other wise most are at Taco on Saturday nights weather permitting. Yes, we were also at the airport and I (Suzie) was doing slow drags. I use to do a fair job of it on slow drags but now seems I lose quite often and once in a while still win, it's harder than you might think, and makes my heart race while I'm doing it, but it's fun. Had lots of fun with Lil' Runaway through the years having gotten her my senior year 1961-1962 of high school, that makes her old like me but we're still cruisin' together for as long as we both last. Thanks for posting a comment. Hope to meet you at Taco.
