I need to make a parts/budget list for the Cutlass with my Dad.. Planning to sem-restore it.. So far it needs, new tires (Kumho white walls will be the replacement), new shocks (Bilsteins), new battery (Costco brand, the old Costco battery lasted 17 years :shifty ), new carburetor (my uncle got us one for free! ), fix the transmission leak (and the torque converter may have taken a poo..)
Then move on to the cosmetics. Fix a small tear in the rear seats. A good clean (been parked for a few years), and possible some paint work (gotta make her purrrfect)
put a new 80deg thermostat in the E21... likely will get some mpg from the 9deg rise but mainly I'm hoping for an operational heater.
Ordered a radiator so I can completely overhaul the cooling system at the same time, but the t-stat on M10s is external so it was easy to do (on and off) in the parking lot at work today while helping customers
Just got done with a vacuum job and interior plastic shine up. I bought the Meguire's equivalent to armorall a few weeks back and just tried it for the first time. I really like it, as do I like most Meguire's products...
That spill from earlier in the day though, its in a tough spot, I'm going to have to remove the passenger seat to clean the carpet >=-/
Also, just ordered this, thanks for the link! I had $2.XX in ebay "bucks" about to expire, so why not...Quote:
