got a lot done today
Fresh battery put in
Automatic driveshaft removed.
Auto tranny is almost ready to come off.
Removed brake and clutch pedals from donor car; still need to pull brake pedal off of the hatch to facilitate the swap.
Sandblasted and painted a set of calipers. They'll be getting rebuilt in the next couple days and going on the car this weekend.
Painted the center console/E-brake black. Looks REALLY good, but now I need to paint the dash and some other panels so that it matches.
I'll put up some pics in a few days so that you can see what is left of the parts car and how mine is looking. It's slowly getting there, but we got a lot done today, even though we still have a long way to go.
we also painted Rex's valve cover black with red lettering. It looks wicked hot
This car is still on par for being in the Challenge. I don't think I'll have any major problems getting it under the budget.
