Didn’t plan on working on the car today but managed to find some time. The stock fuel system was non existant, no fuel pump, sending unit, feed or return lines, emissions crap, evap and charcoal canister crap etc. Good thing about being a parts horder is i had all of this stuff.

I also need to swap out the ignition/ecu and all the locks over to an ap1 set i have. Ignition has to match the ecu for the key to work and i want to get the full 9k out of the engine and be able to use the key on the doors as well. Still need in to install the diff, and rear axles but that’ll go quick. New soft top goes on saturday. ---

Got powder coat back from Capital Region Customs. Now i can get the engine back together, install a new clutch and mate it to the transmission. I’m planning on dropping that in Thursday after work. Tonight i plan on getting the interior all together, installing the ap1 ignition and ecu, wiring the izze-engineering air pump delete, as well as bleeding/priming the fuel lines (because they’ve been empty so long), and getting the rear knuckles off and installing the axles. Tomorrow my friend Joe is bringing over some OEM parts i ordered so i’ll put new boots on the rear knuckles, and get them back on the car. I’ll also do the front brakes tonight if i have enought time. Lots of stuff on the to-do list but i can see the light at the end of the tunnel. ![http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/2C486294-CF6B-44A2-986B-B35DF32FF682-333-0000008A134576AA_zps69880969.jpg](http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/2C486294-CF6B-44A2-986B-B35DF32FF682-333-0000008A134576AA_zps69880969.jpg) ![http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/B6D1BA25-0044-4A98-98F1-276A7FB44D0D-333-0000008A1DA55B8D_zps2ebe3e10.jpg](http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/B6D1BA25-0044-4A98-98F1-276A7FB44D0D-333-0000008A1DA55B8D_zps2ebe3e10.jpg) ![http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/3B5648B2-F74B-487D-B3BF-FDF8C0484BB9-333-0000008A18739766_zps6bed8505.jpg](http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/3B5648B2-F74B-487D-B3BF-FDF8C0484BB9-333-0000008A18739766_zps6bed8505.jpg) ![http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/244F01A5-0E72-4D81-8BC5-36A026A6CE35-333-0000008A22DFD1E1_zpsf4fe2bc0.jpg](http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/244F01A5-0E72-4D81-8BC5-36A026A6CE35-333-0000008A22DFD1E1_zpsf4fe2bc0.jpg) ---
