Finished all my finals!
My roommate has challenged me to have the car started by next Wednesday night, so ya'll should see some progress in the next couple days.
I DID IT!
I immediately came home from seeing my mom on Mothers Day and got to work.
For the 3 days I had I was out there at least 14 hours each day, and it was well worth it.
Ran into a few issues, like my fuel pump burnt out for some reason, so I had to go run and get one. But for the most part it was smooth sailing.
I'm absolutely stoked at how nice it came out. It still needs a few things done to complete the tuck, but I still think it looks incredible.
Here's a picture of the engine bay with everything in it:
Finally got to wash the car (what a satisfying wash it was, to remove 2+ years of dust)
Still need to address the few body panels that are messed up.
Here's a first start video! This was right after verifying oil pressure was good and nothing blew up! So this is it in it's rawest state.
Having some issues with the TPS, so i need to line that out and get it idling properly. But not bad for just enabling speed density and throwing in a guesstimate for fuel.
