Finally got it outta the garage, new water pump housing and water pump, then had to wash down the entire car with a Hotsy to wash away the 40 years of buildup. The car was undercoated, which helped save it from rusting through the trunk or anywhere. Now on to the new brakes, lines, fuel tank, fuel line, radiator, and putting on the new tires.

It’s fun to dig these cars out of storage and get them back on the road.

Looks like a great car!

That’s a sweet car! The patina is beautiful. As crazy as it sounds, the patina works with that colour.
