Hoping to get things going, FINALY

Postby Jrscobra » Sun Mar 26, 2017 10:21 am

Well, after a repeated attempt to clean out space in the garage, I think I can finally get the Spider in their. Gathering little things that I know I need has taken some time, and I still have to order a fuel tank, FSU, and clean out fuel lines.

Once inside, I can do more in evenings and I can't wait to get this car on the road! Already , I've had a lot of support from this group!

Thanks for the info and opinions!

Hope to show progress soon !

Ugh. Financial issues are keeping my progress at zilch. So ready to get rolling. Maybe I can get the fuel tank soon and then get rolling.

Wish me luck!

I definitely will be posting pics as I go.

The process of ordering parts is just around the corner. I can smell the FEDEX and UPS Trucks!!!

After the fuel tank, we'll be doing wheels and tires, a new top, and then we will wet sand the car and fix a little rust and see what we have. If the paint looks like it needs refreshed, I've lined up a painter.

Then, new emblems and Stereo System.

I am amazed at how little rust there is on this car. The passenger side front floorpan has some rust, but so far, its solid. I may replace it anyway when I take out the seats and give the seat tracks a good cleaning.
