    uh...the only thing I've done so far was clean it, i've spent most of my time on the clock or exercising (or getting tanked after work...) so.......yeah......too bad I don't have any mechanics in my family....I'd love to get it up and running because I know the vehicle has potential...but finding time for it right now is a bitch......especially since they just expanded our areas in Baton Rouge....my boy Snowbarger (Goddamn good locator) has probably the most difficult area to locate in the STATE, (Part of Lobdell, and Sherwood forest) and I got Sherwood and Coursey and most of Coursey added to my area, Sherwood and Coursey's another clusterfckk...They gonna be dickin around over there til feb, and keepin' it flagged isn't really an option cuz they always digging.....I'm gonna flag it anyway and just keep it refreshed, but......I gotta locate that shit on Monday, not lookin' forward to it....But , ya know....Ya gotta do, what ya gotta do, to keep the goddamn happy moments comin', ya know?.........i'm semi trashed atm ill catch u fellas later

    Best advice I can give you is
    a, get a chiltons or haynes manual, sit down and READ IT!
    b, replace ALL fluids and filters in the car, after you get it running again, replace them again. (like 500 miles)
    c, be prepared to replace a lot of vacuum lines, wires, stupid little connectors, brake and fuel lines, etc.
    d, ENJOY!!! You will be suprized what a GOOD manual will walk you thru.
