The new backside. eventually (if it doesn't sell soon) the whole car will be painted the same as the rear fenders and apron. What do y'all think? before

after

Does anybody know any one looking for a car such as this one? I really need to sell.

Like I said in the Dripn Drivers section, She's gone to Bryce now. Maybe he can and will take her to the next level.

Hood and fenders got a quick sand and spray tonight. I am sure I will have to redo them but the car is now either green or patina (not including the decklid)

I still have to figure out the popping and jerking problems but I will get it.

Just got it fixed. For some odd reason something was telling me to check the distributor so I went out and hooked up a light and started looking again. First I checked the firing order to make it sure it was correct and it was. Next I pulled the cap off and inspected it. And bingo I found the culprit. The piece that rides on the rotor was missing. I dont even know how the car was running at all to tell you the truth.... So I replaced the cap with another I had and the car fired right up and ran just as good. Took out for a spin and all the popping and jerking was gone..... So next.......

Cool, I'll post some of the bus as I do stuff to it, but it'll be a while as I have to let the piggy bank fill back up.

This is why the car was popping and jerking the center piece in the cap was mia

Here is a couple pics of the quick sand and paint I did in the dark yesterday. I am def. going to redo it but at least the car is more matched now except for the decklid....

Here it is before I got it
