Good deal it runs!! Your air cleaner is in the wrong place though Get a new hall sender and hopefully you should be good to go.. for now..

[twardnw]

That's the old K&N that came with the car, I have a paper filter in right now

New hall sender… you gonna pay for that?

[twardnw]

it's gotten worse since you tried to stop it

[joel]

yeah, well, that happens when the brakes aren't working in the first place and the car sits for so long

what is needed to make that car safe to drive?

[twardnw]

le sigh, lots, more than I want to think about.

• brakes
• engine cooling
• charging system
• turn signals
• brake lights
• floors/structure

[twardnw]

I guess that video is the last time it started? Or close to. I fired it up again yesterday, going to be taking it to a body guy to have the new floors welded in and some small rust repairs done

[twardnw]

of course, in the 3 minutes it took to move it out onto the driveway, it doesn't want to stay running :\

[twardnw]

hover-car, now with true flintstone status





Had Ed pull the windshield, just a little bit of rust, no holes


The passenger side seat support however....

What is the scoop on that old red pick up in the background?

[twardnw]

just one of many projects Ed has going on, there's also a 30's plymouth, and another pickup project in the shop too

[twardnw]

oh yeah, got the car back a couple weeks ago, floors look beautiful

Haha.... here is a pic of me with my mk1 scirocco taken around 88-89. It was already starting to get rusty back then.

A friend just emailed it to me yesterday.
