They are pretty cheap and not that great (we would go through 1 set per race), but better than nothing if you need them.

I have 2 passenger mounts and seem to be missing my drivers side ones. i'd take the drivers side if you want to put it back in inventory...can even get the order in today to go with my other...which has likely left the building already.

The engine and transmission are all set to go back into this car. I pulled everything apart and cleaned and painted. All new hoses, belts, seals, gaskets etc. I didn't touch the rings or bearings as the motor seemed fine before I pulled it apart. Jon Williams has been helping me do some rust repairs on the front wheel wells. The area around the axles was quite ugly and needing attention.




Rust repair 1:



Rust repair 2:

Decided to relegate this car to the world of parts. Unfortunately there is too much rust repair needed to make it worthwhile with all the projects I have. Aside from the front wheel well damage there is also rear wheel well damage and floor damage...which is a shame because the outer body looks pretty good. I think for now it will donate the interior, headliner, and sunroof to my 85. It will also be good for replacement body panels if ever needed on the rally car.

IF ever needed?

Too bad, that car does look nice on the outside. Even in person.

I really need a notchback headliner board and c piller boards. I can pick em up if you are parting a notch.

While I did say the car would be for parts I did not say I would be parting the car . I need those same pieces for my 85 notchback.

dang!
