-Good battery
-Gave the carb a birthday
-Put fuel in it, made it go. Runs pretty well, especially considering it’s been sitting for nearly 5 years.
-Swapped some tyres around; it’s now got 14x6 2-piece Jap mesh with Kelly 195/65s front, 14x7 Hurricanes with Hankook 235/60s rear. I like it, front needs to come down 1”, maybe 1-1/2” though.
-Poked around chasing rust, it hasn’t actually gotten any worse since it’s been sitting. Advantages of living in a dustbowl, I guess.
I also bought a god-awful manual 3.8 VT cheap, runs nice, gearbox is fine but the rest of the car’s fucked. So I guess that’s happening.
Anyway. Pictures.
