Gauges and helper bags ordered tonight. I’m being told that the gauges may take a couple of months but that’s ok.
Also rear, has some Belltech nitro drop shocks. I’m going to throw those in the trash and replace them with some stock size Bilsteins with shock extenders when I replace the bags...
I don't know yet. I would bet it has. It would blow my mind if it had made it 32 years, still work and never have been converted at this point. But I could be surprised. Haven't had a chance to dig into that either :)
Yeah, I'm pretty sure my 87 was the same. Sometime in the next few weeks I'll find some time to do some investigating.
Another weak point of squares is their power window system. I will need to check that out, too. I know that the motors are new according to the previous owner but it's still...

I guess there goes that idea of not...

Picked her up today. Drive her five hours home from Waterloo, Iowa to south of KC. Overall did well. Discovered a leaky radiator up in Des Moines. We did the right thing and closed the hood, pretended we didn’t see that and bombed our way home :happy175: she did good! I now have a aluminum...
Nope. Mine was my oldest decided to round off the head. End result? Bolt stayed put and I put the other bolts back. It was on the front sway bar so that sway bar stayed put. It looked just fine right there :roflbow:
