Page Three: During Restoration
Here are a few pics of me in work. This is the first car I ever worked on. So I didnt wanna get in too deep with engine work and all.
Me doing her first tune up.
Her then 22 year old engine bay. It has a 301ci 4.9L backed by a T/H350 and an open end rear.
Starting on some body work. Man are those doors heavy.
Some interior work.
Even more interior work.
The old carpet.
Once again... more body work. Fixing that always occuring rot whole behind passanger door.
This is a bad sight for my first car... I still gotta weld a new floor pan in.
My baby missing a fender. I think this pic looks soo cool.
My 1980 TTA parts car. Unfortunitly restoring my 79 was for a school project so i needed to use the TTA as a parts car. I bought it for $400.
This is how my baby looks now. My dad primered her in our driveway with a gun. Unforunitly it started drissling half way through so I got water marks. She has the T/A fenders and TTA hood.
Not bad I think for a 22 year old engine, tranny and open rear end with god knows how many miles.
More pics of the burnout. ( I seem to do my burnouts in my driveway at night, I did the same with my 87 T/A. Check those pics out at http://www.cardomain.com/id/87transamws6 )
