New windshield is being installed next week by a local windshield company as well.

We will be pulling the motor & trans & going thru it.
This is Josh Watson's old T. We installed a cam sensor & crank sensor then fired it up. Sorry Josh Maybe you can win it back
New turbo the old 1 was shot.
When it is complete it will be like a new car.
This is how the car looked when we bought it from Josh.

To people donating PLEASE E-mail me direct (Bweavy@aol.com) so that we do not have multiples of the same parts. If that does happen we will auction of the second donation on e-bay. I would rather have different parts.

Looks like I will have to redo my donation of parts. Didn't realize it was a column shift car so the console overlay, ashtray switch panel and shifter handle isn't going to cut it!

He did say "Here is the car all nice and stock! This thing will be completely custom by Dec!"
