Shell Preppin '74 EMS
Posted: Tue May 29, 2007 11:51 pm
So I finally got around to stripping down one of my spare shells...
The specifics:
'74 99 EMS, last inspected in 1989 and been sitting in the weeds ever since where an entire mouse colony happily called it home. So I felt bad for the car and decided its finally time for it to start its transition into a spare rally shell, ready to be pulled into service when the time comes.
No shortage of Fe2O3 here
Mmm, mouse dirt
Ut oh what does jordan see?...
Brake ventilation holes!
Solved that pesky engine in the way problem
Josh performs surgury on the brake lines
And then plays some "air duct"
About 5 seconds after this photo we discovered the motherload, 15 years of mouse nest.
We decided cleaning woud be easier if we could flip it upside down so rotiseriee was built:
Look ma I can fly!
Finally found a use for old rear axle hub assemblies!
Trying to get rid of the mouse odor:
"When I grow up, I want to be a rally car too!"
