the now interior blue.



it had spoke with will with the lug nuts. and found this wheels on the trunk the guy didn't had the key to the trunk and when i open it by taking off the latch i found the wheel inside lucky me. so i just got new rubber for it. :mrgreen: sitting next to my custom mini van 89 astro



as for the body damage it had small dent a big dent on the quarter pannel and rusted out where the windshield meets the roof. probably on the most hard thing to fix.



the bottom corner of the windshield both parts.



here's the piece fabricated and welded on

that thing is lookin nice! can't wait to see it finished!

on the heater fan motor: #1 rule- check the simple things first! check the fuse, then check the purple wire at the fan (with the heater or a/c on) and see if you're getting power. you may have just shorted it out while spraying under the hood. if you're not getting power, just start tracing back... next back would be the relay that sits just off to the side of the a/c accumulator...
