Engine, wiper motor, battery tray, engine bay...

 

Final day of sanding/prep before paint

Need to remove wiper motor to bench test

Wiper transmission under dash

Wiper motor. Bench tested. Needs rebuilt


Battery tray needs to come out...it's rusted through


Began priming the bare oil pan

Removed Michael's original valve covers and put a set of our "shop" covers on for paint



Started to apply some Chevy Orange




Began documenting/removing the old wiring harness.

Lots of sketchy wiring splicing

Hood latches coming off...

Main wiring harness is out

Chevy orange turned out great!


New rear wheel cylinders, turn the drums, bleed brakes & hood…

Let’s replace the rear wheel cylinders… Interesting to note the shoes are not making consistent contact w/the drums Wheel cylinder caps - yi...
