I bought the Dupli-Color stuff.
Pretty good, but the pen stops working pretty easily. lol

Most of mine matches the touch up paint, so it doesn't look bad.

When did you sell it? I was wondering what ever happened to it but I can't remember you telling us you sold it.......

Oh I sold it about 3 months ago actually. It needed a clutch and tires and the 90k maintenance done and I didn't like being in debt plus insurance was running me $190 a month... Not worth it. Awesome car though, I would buy another. I think I mentioned it in this thread actually.

Finished flushing and tested cor compression gasses in radiator. Broke my tester some time back, so ordered a new one (old one was about 20 years ol - and glass....new one is plastic of course!).

No combustion gasses, so filled with coolant and burped accordingly.

Was tranny cooler behind the radiator? That would make a difference as the air coming into it would be preheated by radiator.

Glad it's cooler now.

Default New Front Shocks

Used the cutting torch to heat the bottom shock bracket on passenger side front in order to spread the bracket so I could get the old shock out.

Correct me if I am wrong, but mine is in front of the AC condenser, and I do believe it was not moved and always there...
