Well, had a pretty good weekend.
- Bled and flushed fuel, coolant, brake, and clutch systems. No leaks as of yet.
- Mounted all exterior panels, fenders, hatches, hood, etc.
- Adjusted closing/locking mechanisms on front and back hatch/hood/tailgate.
- Welded window connection to firewall. OEM was brazed. I don't know how to braze. Requires experience to do it well. I did not want to experiment and learn at this stage in the game, so it's welded, sealed, painted, done. We'll see just how important that brazing is at some point in the future...maybe.
Next thing is to figure out how to mount the battery trays properly, the air cleaner, and then hopefully fire it up to see if it goes putt-putt.
Then it's paint, windows, dashboard, carpets, seats, bumpers, and final checks...3 weeks and counting.
