Got the car over to my pops house for the winter. Heres from the first day of work. Looks like I'll be holed up at his house all winter!

What are you doing with the roof window?

Why did you take off the landau?

Re: My 81' Project

The window is getting patched. Whether I need to just patch that hole or find a different salvageable roof.

I took off the landau top because I am making it a hardtop. Even if I wasn't the original was crap.

UPDATE

Okay so been awhile but things have been crazy as usual.

Ordered a painless wiring kit which will be here Thursday. Hope to have it all installed by the end of the weekend.

Rotors and pads will be done over the next fed days along with a coolant flush and oil change.

Will be picking up heater stuff as well over the next few days along with a battery.

Re: My 81' Project

how long will it take you to wire everything up?

Re: My 81' Project

Who knows?? I think I will have a better idea on time once I get back over there. The temperature dropped up here so i haven't been out to the garage since I got the wiring kit.

Also, while I have done plenty of wiring for numerous projects I have never tackled something this large so I want to make sure everything goes right the first time around.

Will update soon.

Re: My 81' Project

So the temp keeps dropping out here looks like I won't make it out there for a few days.

But, this means I have time to shop. TO THE INTERNET! 😀

I will post more pics as stuff arrives.
