Picked up as a freebee, going to use it in the 2010 Babe Rally, this event is for junkers that no more than $500 was outlaid on. These cars are driven from New York to Louisiana. Updates to come.

replaced brake lines, drained tank and fixed intake gasket leak, got her running. Brakes still soft and floors very rotten, fixing them up so they are safe/r.

Master cylinder replaced with eBay find. helped pedal but it needs pads.

Floors have being replaced with sheet steel, 3rd gen Camaro buckets being installed, roll bar that was on the S10 has been installed, we have a theme in mind now watch as it develops.

I have sourced a electronic ignition from a later model to rid myself of the old points.

Ignition installed, engine is up and running but seems to have a LOT of blowby, should get me through the babe but will need a rebuild or replace soon after. Its going to go through a Mystery Oil treatment to try to loosen up the rings.

Brakes eem much better although the non boosted pedal needs a lot of pressure.

Seat belts installed from a RX7, gaining retractable sash belts.

We have some interesting ideas for a theme for the BrUTE.

Updates 12-20-09

We have decided the engine is too far gone at this time, so I am seeking another 302 to install, blow by is spectactular which is why the routing of the tubes has been done in this manner, i am on the trail of a $75 decent complete motor.
