A couple more parts pictures - the engine mount "lift kit" or "recall kit" bolts were mentioned a couple pages back. Here is a close up of the bolts, this being a recall installation I cannot guarantee that the correct parts were used but I'll let you all be the judge.

I'm cleaning up the firewall and new parts will finally start going on soon. Here are some shots of a few details as I cleaned it. "BBLU" written and "A46 1" stamped into firewall. What does the stamping represent? Other pictures are of primer, body color, and firewall paint coverage.

Also, any tips on they best option to touch up paint on the firewall? The master cylinder leaked for years and the paint immediately below it flaked off when I wiped it down. I bought a couple rattle can underhood semi gloss paints but neither have enough gloss to match the factory paint when sprayed on a test part.

What's the date on the gas tank? Danny

Danny-

There is a lot of undercoating on the tank and I cannot find it. What is the exact place to look? Maybe I'll get lucky and be able to get some of the undercoating off.

Were there melt pads (tar pads) under the driver's feet?
Thanks!

Yes Kurt there were - I did not get pictures of them on the floor (I forgot!) but have some of them out of the car. They were starting to tear at the floor to firewall bend but they came out in one piece.

To all - I've done some more work on disassembly and have it down to pretty much the body shell so let me know if there are any questions or pictures to see. Flickr hasn't been letting me upload pictures for a couple of months so I need to get that fixed to post a few more. Body mounts, engine mounts, and line clips are some of new ones to post.

It's been awhile again since the last post but here's an update. I'll post a few more pictures, let me know if you want any detail shots. There are more in the Flickr album.
Interior is completely stripped, all harnesses are out, firewall is stripped. Exhaust system, rear axle, front suspension, and subframe will all be coming out in the next week or so.

After carpet removal and some tags I found under the carpet. One was still stuck to the carpet and the other came off when I pulled it out.

Making a bit more progress. Most of the interior is out, just the harness, one kick panel, and a few of the vent ducts left. Carpet will be coming out soon. Hopefully I'll get to all of that this weekend and clean up the parts that are all over the garage. Here are a few interior shots. Let me know if you want to see any details.










Adding a better picture of the original dealer sticker. One of my favorite things on the car. If I ever have to repaint it I am going to replicate this.

Might as well pull the heater motor and shoot the second hidden VIN for fun. I am sure it matches, but just nice to see. There might also be some other chalk markings under there. You might have to rebuild the motor anyway? I put mine in a vice and ran it for 15 minutes and it seemed ok so I just put it back in. Nice job so far! Danny

Here's the matching VIN under the heater box



I'm converting over to Vintage Air - will change the center vent set up though to keep the dash pad and to not cut the dash.

Here are some picture of the cuts in the under seat carpet. I will probably get the carpet out in the next couple of days and will post pictures of how everything looks underneath then.

Seats are out now, seat belts next. Last call for any pre-disassembly photos of anything else in the interior. Door panels, dash pad, and headliner will not be coming out. More pictures of the seat belts in the Flickr album.
