well l23s ready to come out, and a l26 has found its way into my garage. few differences, starter motors are on different side which will easily be over come as they just attach to the sandwich plate so ill run the l23 one. water hose is on a different size so will just be a matter of running longer pipe for now.
have got the brakes un siezed, brake shoes in front seem kinda low so will be getting them re lined, rears still have quite a bit of meat so will leave them for now. considering its drum all round i may get re vin and then look into doing something else later on down the track with putting some dics on.
have started the rust repairs, have started on rear right door, ready for patchs on the outside. couple doors need some patchs, couple are still solid, both front guards require a repair at the bottom. one rear guard needs a small patch, whole front of bonnet needs new steel, overall wasnt as bad as i was expecting.
floors are all really solid, probably due the the inch thick layer of grease on the under side of the car.
anyway heres some pics, l23 ready to come out, note the sweet exhausts they have
heres the l26, will throw in some new frost plugs and paint the block then wack it in one night this week
couple interior shots for you piners
