Wiggles work
Here's where it stands today. As of November 1, 2006, I've replaced the fuel pump, valve cover gasket and some vacuum hoses. New shocks all around and new front brakes. Rear deck and back seat removed and cleaned, fiberboard deck sanded down and covered with fabric, holes cut for speakers. Dynamat added and 6x8" speakers installed. Dashboard is removed and repaired, but not replaced yet. Original AM radio removed. Heater control lever was found disconnected; reconnected it so heat/defrost would work. Heater chanel not connected to blower; attached with ultra-suave binder clip. New, temporary carpet in front to replace rotted out carpet soaked when heater core failed. Still needed (date discovered):
