Picture
Here's a picture of my car - not the best shot I admit.
Car is sans hood since there was a spot of filler that was cracking. Its now been repainted and I need to get over there and put it back on. Also waiting on new GTO quarter emblem (broke one in two polishing it........). Will take some more pics once its all back together. I'm working on insulating the floor next, then I'll put in the new carpet and the rest of the interior. IMO the X-pipe adds quite a bit of heat to the driveshaft tunnel.

Thank Greg, it's been a long time getting here............... and I'm still not done putting it back together!
Lately I been thinking about making up a aluminum heat deflector to put over my X-pipe. But I'm not sure there's enough clearance. The driveshaft tunnel is just way too hot - its the bare floor right now but still..............

Thats a good option Don, thanks.
I'm starting to wonder what affect this x-pipe heat is having on the Muncie. I notice its starting to weep at the tailshaft gasket and its only a few years since a full rebuild. I know Muncies are prone to weeping some but I'm betting this extra heat is not good for a "driver" car.

If it aint one thing it's another. These old cars are like old houses, take down sheet rock and there you find bad wiring.
Keep plugging you are almost there. Can't wait to see it. The POCI cruise in is 7/16 at Chief's Wings and firewater. Perhaps that could be her maiden voyage. Mike |
