I posted this before and got some good advice from forum members, so I pulled the trigger and brought it home. First thing will be to get rid of the electric fuel pump and go back to mechanical, change fluids and minor tune-up. The body is solid and very few holes to fill. Still in gel coat very few which will make painting easier. the pans are solid overall but do have some patchable holes. Engine and transaxle are functioning as they should. Wiring need love and will likely have Rebel Wiring it TN make a new harness. I'm trying to find a copy of the original assembly manual to help with dis-assembly if anyone has one.

Sweet! I’m thinking that exhaust is going to be pretty loud!
