    runs in the paint

    i watched a couple of the vids on youtube and seems pretty straight forward. i'll probably give it a shot in the next day or so. how about overspray? i watched a pretty lengthy vid on that but they didn't explain anything as they were going along. can i just use a clay bar and call it quits...

    '86 GT vert

    $900. also, just looked at some other '86 GT pics on the net and noticed he didn't use a pic of his own car! he cropped a pic that someone else posted. i'll give the guy the benefit of the doubt that maybe he doesn't have a digital camera :D he did say that he does have the title...

    '86 GT vert

    the guy is not asking anywhere near 5200 but i was shocked to see they are booked at that price. if i can score it for under a grand, would it be a good deal (assuming it isn't a train wreck....and w/o seeing it yet, that could be a BIG assumption)?

    '86 GT vert

    found an '86 GT convertible locally for what sounds like a fair price. not sure of mileage yet, other than "over 100,000 miles". ad says it "runs strong". auto trans (ad says it's been rebuilt), the motor for the vert top is shot but the top is supposedly in good shape. body is supposed to...

    emergency brake cable

    i FINALLY got some time to work on the car and i figured i'd have the rear axle off in less than an hour. i was under the impression that i had to remove the rear brake drum to "unhook" the emergency brake cable. this is from a guy i work with. after removing the drum i still couldn't figure...

    rear drum removal

    i STILL have not pulled these ******* off yet. i did hit them with a hammer and they still move just as much as they were before. i guess what i'll have to do is try to adjust the brakes a bit. can this be done with a flat head screwdriver or do i need a special tool? this is the only thing...

    LX 5.0 Console w/ cupholder

    looks FANTASTIC! if you have any "in progress" pics of how you did it, i'd love to see it. another thing i'd like to add to my car is a map light like the one is a lexus LX470. there is two orange little lights on the overhead console that shine directly on the center section. they are...

    rear drum removal

    i tried tapping on it with hammer. it didn't help. i didn't go postal on it though. i checked out the link posted above and it mentions "keeper bolt" on the front of the drum. i don't remember seeing anything like that on the front. can you guys tell me what it looks like or where it's...

    460 and handling?

    that's the same reaction i had! looks like it's back to the world of small blocks :nice: worst part is, just by dropping that motor in, i'd be sitting on 500hp (it's not a complete stocker 460 :D ). that's alright, i'll trade some HP for the ability to actually turn the car :nice:
