This 1600 that was rebuild with low mileage will go into the wagon.

Airing out the wagon, it's been dry for the last week. Got to put a couple of tarps to keep it dry I hope till I can get back on it now that the back aera is cleaned up and I got the motor where I can get a clutch and trans on it easier to gut it in the wagon.

Here is the motor that will be put in the wagon, I had rebuilt it way back then later took it out. Not sure if it had some oil seeping out where head mated to the block but I will put it in, get it running and then refigure it out. The lower end of the motor should be fine.

Also got the two sedans out to run some. Gotta get that funky gas out and get em running better. So far they have been running fairly consistent.

Metal.  Decent quality from Partsgeek.com. GM offers their own, for 3x+ the price, but I'm pleased with these. No telling how they'll hold up.

 

If you mount them in the concave channel, as I did, they don't fit perfectly, but are still pretty good. They'd fit a little better on a flatter surface. I trimmed a small portion of the rubberized trim base plate and just figured that a $16 solution wasn't going to be factory engineered.  I'm happy with them.

Are those metal or plastic? And if you don't mind sharing, where'd you pick them up and how do you like the manufacturing quality?

Haha wow, I did not even notice the front tires. That's great. I think tristin is likely correct, but I agree with you hobo, someone needs to build a 4 wheel dually just for the Hell of it :)

edekalil,   Its Time for you to post engine and interior pics

OK I am back home now and will get some pics of the motor and inside of the 70/510 but it is just as I got it way back. It is stock and very messy. My main issue at this time due to no time is to run, run ,run and run this car to get all the funky gas out of it then put some fresh gas in it with some more Seafome in it. It is running very consistently now just got to keep it going. Next is to get some new tires, the old ones are old and not sure how far they will go before exploding.

Why not just pull the drain plug on the tank? Then drop in fresh gas and you're good to go?

Well being downtown and nouthing to drain a mostly full tank of gas in is a problem. But it's getting better as I keep running her. If I still was in the country it would be different.

Wondered why she was running a bit ruff, the front cylinder was not getting any spark made sure the wires where all connected. Fired it up and all was good. Probably time to get a new set.

Now I have to figure out getting that Weber 32/36 DGV on.
