today's update.
Gutted the rest of the interior:
There are some holes in the floorboards that will be simple to patch up. Removed a lot of sound deadening. Seats + carpet easily weight 200+ pounds, not to mention all the underdash stuff that's not going back in.
Cleaned the engine bay a bit with degreaser. Also cut off some unused bracketry for cleanliness.
Next, I needed something that wouldn't take more than a day to do, so considering I am leaving on vacation tomorrow. Since there is no PS to be run on the car, we need to loop the PS lines. This is where the lines attached:
With 2 banjo bolt style fittings like these:
They both appeared to be on the same plane, so this is what don and I came up with:
The 2 small ports on the end will be tacked closed with weld. We went to the machine shop at work and hammered it out in an hour or so...
Temporarily installed (still needs to be welded):
That's it for now. Expect the updates to resume on the 10th or 11th.
