[pejsa s-13]

so here it is 85 720 5 spdthe interior is super clean and nice and the motor is a mess i swear there are some bird nest in there and some random wires leading nowhere and vacume lines hangin out traded my POS 79 cutlass for it plus $300so today i replaced the air filter, oil, flushed the radiator, cleaned it and put my old wheels on it

on the ajenda for tomorrow, tortion lift, remove the shell, clean the engine more and maybe take the bumpers off

comments?

Nice! Keep the cap, those things come in handy when moving stuff in the rain like electronics, carpet ect. Wheels look good on it, I bought a 89 recently and vacuum are plugged and some missing and the ones that aren't probably are not ran to correct locations.

Inside looks mint, my Grandfather always said you rid on the inside so who cares how it looks outside.

stop by the 720 forum

already did brotha

i like this truck alot

its funny though cuz the brakes on this suck and it has power steering. but my other trucks breaks are awesome but it doesnt have power steering. so these thrucks feel like they couldnt be any more different

Just a suggestion clean up under the hood and replace any belts and hoses that are old, cheap insurance. get some vacuum lines and replace any dry ones. Then just try to get a vacuum line diagram and figure out where they all go and replace and reinstall them. Can save many funny running headaches down the road. I hate guys who mess with vacuum lines as it always leads to trouble.

Good luck. I can never find hardbodies in the junk yards up near LA. I found one once, but there wasn't much left. I see v6 pathfinders here and there. As for the bumper, there's a couple places in San Diego that sell aftermarket body parts ridiculously cheap, but I don't know about the quality. You may want to check them out. http://www.cpwusa.com or http://www.certifit.com
