nick@nite Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Couldn't resist, had to recuse another 59K 505 Turbo, that's a one owner car that is not all rusted from a severe weather climate with salt cancer. Also the price was a lot better then the 59K ebay special that was from Cali, that one that had everything wrong with it for and paid $4K for.... This engine is one very quiet, tight, engine... My father troubleshot everything for 3 days on the start up issue. Found out it's the blue fuel pump relay was the colporate. Also the prepump wasn't working at all. Found out it was original, used a 405 one. The rebuilt water pump has a bearing noise when you shut down the engine. You look at the pulley and it's a not @ the correct point on the shaft... V/C gasket needs replacing, I have 2 new here... Installed a good used fog that was missing. New washer pump installed. Fresh alignment, front Uniroyal's are cupped (now moved to the back) and the other 2 tyres were not even balanced... Clutch is weak, will need replacing soon. Will use my old stock one from my 86'GL, I thought it needed a clutch due to it was high when we rebuilt the tranny, It was like new... Sunroof + seal needs some attention... Brakes are all good and they're is no shimmy or shake with plenty of meat on the pads. Drives like a dream that I rebalanced the rims and tyres and it is aligned now.... This car's body is not rusty and is very straight, only a couple of door dings. My father is getting the thing painted, haven't decided on color yet, I say Red... It's what it deserves, the hood and roof are flat black Oh yeah the A/C works too :) Crappy OE speakers have been replaced in the rear that I can see with 6.5in Pioneer along with an older head unit. Also came with the OE radio in the trunk along with some front+rear brake pads too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick@nite Posted February 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Car is back from paint, it's pretty decent for $1500. It has a lot of wet sanding and buffing to get out the dirt and fish eyes to really give it a nice sharp shine it deserves. Will post up some pic's soon. It's very slow in the shop so it went straight on a lift to have the clutch swapped out. Putting in a 389 non torsen rear with new diff seals, new throw out bearing and pilot bearing. Also found the 411 rear for the race car Next is addressing the sunroof.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
