Not mine, but helped my buddy put new Moog steering gear in the $200 Cutlass (dubbed "Chinco"- short for Chincoteague, VA). He had ball joints, but neglected to get end links (as well as an idler arm). So we left those for another weekend, and did a redneck string alignment toe adjustment.

Rolled the 80E outside on the trusty ole radio flyer to degrease it some. I want it as clean as possible for opening it up. Also ordered a 20' roll of -6 braided line, because racecar!

I got a later start than I wanted to. But I, yanked the passenger side front seat to get easier access under the dash. I built a homemade duct to better disperse the heat from the Vintage Air heater that's installed on the backside of the firewall block-off plate. My passengers were complaining how hot it would get on their side. Meanwhile my feet would be freezing.

I got it all made up and ready to install. But decided to shoot it with a quick coat of spray bomb. I'll re-install it tomorrow and move on to the other items on my list.

I'm stuck waiting parts to come. I'm tired of these holidays and all the days with no mail!

The other half of every project: cleaning up.

Four hours of on my knees laboriously sucking - with a vacuum... ya, pigs.
