6 years later........Skull dragged the LC from the shed

[79_lancer]

Well it's been 6 years since i got my LC. after only a few months of working on it and not making much progress (due to lack of funds) it went into the shed and has been there ever since.... until today.
I've pulled it out just to tidy it up a little and get it running properly so that my sister and/or brother can use it until they get cars of their own. when they aren't using it, i might be able to rack up some k's in it myself here are some pics from today.... its a little rough but it's still got potential......











The 'to do' list involves:

put front end back on
patch up rust i've previously cut out but not fixed
remove fuel tank and drain/ clean it ( i thing there is a bit of crap in it)
un block fuel lines ( due to crap in tank)
replace fuel filter
service engine
Rough-as-guts paint job (mite just get some pressure pack stuff to make it all one colour instead of 3 lol)
possibly swap shockers (i think the ones in it are buggered)
put rego on it
do a skid
...........
nah prob not the last one lol. just go for a good test drive and make sure everything is working as it should..... then hand it over to my sister...... maybe...... or keep it for myself still

Cheers,
Dave

So........ After a few days working on the little beast, it now runs, is pretty much complete and has rego
It still needs a fair bit of work, but nothing I can't get sorted within the next few weeks( waiting for pay day )
Took it for a drive after doing an oil change, new plugs, points etc and bleeding brakes...... ( old fluid came out black 0_O)
It drives........ Like a boat lol..... The shockers are nackered, and probably some of the bushes etc. also mite have to change the fuel and water pumps. Also the speedo isn't working so ill have to look into that. Otherwise, it's nearly there
