Angela 588 Report post Posted May 17, 2017 Here's my 'Goon...affectionately known as "Blanca". I posted pics when I first got her a couple years ago but they got deleted. She's pretty bone stock...inside/out but I have plans to install a 5 speed tranny & beefed up L16 that's sitting in the garage for now. So hard to be patient but I'm amassing parts/accessories like coffin handles, roof rack, Libres & new rubber parts in anticipation of the day I can send it over to the paintshop & have everything installed at once. Anyone got a stainless steel roof rack they'd like to part with? I've got one that's o-k-a-y...but it's got the fake wood grain on it & it's not my ideal. I LOVE THIS CAR! When you repaint your goon are you going to keep the vinyl top? I think it looks awsome with the vinyl top. After owning my 'Goon for about 6 yrs now & really getting to know & appreciate her, I've decided not to paint her (even though she's had on respray from PO on a few panels already). She's in the shop now getting as-close-to-stock-looking medium metallic blue vinyl interior redone on front & rear seats & a new headliner installed. I will post some before/after oics as soon as she's done. :thumbup: 4 Quote Share this post Link to post

edekalil 1,746 Report post Posted May 21, 2017 Trying to get the gas tank stuff together to install the tank on the Goon. Took off the old hoses to get some new and figure size and how long they have to be. Gotta get this Goon running again. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
edekalil 1,746 Report post Posted May 22, 2017 Well I now know what size to get, just have to get enough to do it now. Also gotta figure out a sending unit for the Goon and Sedans. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
edekalil 1,746 Report post Posted June 7, 2017 Any suggestions on new hoses for the gas tank on a Goon. I need suggestions on replacing all the hoses for the gas tank on my Goon. The large ones I need something gas resistant. Quote Share this post Link to post
Busta Nut 9,442 Report post Posted June 7, 2017 I did this..... I cut the existing hose back a little to fit the spacer in....... .....then heated up the hose...becuz it felt like PCV pipe...to give it some flex and stretch it over my 2" pipe...... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
hang_510 1,108 Report post Posted June 7, 2017 I did this..... I did almost the same thing. I managed to find a JY donor that was perfect, until I snapped 1 of the 3 mounting studs. RV stores were a good source for large ID fuel safe hose. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
