I have named the car Orca 77.
Phase 1 involved the following:
New tires
Replacing the brakes and master cylinder
Repairing the driver door and installing it on the car
Installing complete new exhaust system rear of the
catalytic
converter
Replacing the rsuted out floor pan on the drivers' side
Jim had taken the door off in order to repair it. The fiberglass had separated from the metal.
The door has now been repaired and placed back on the car!
We originally had planned to just shore up the
driver's
side floor pan and then replace the whole thing in the winter.
Our plans had to change when I put my foor through the
floor. This is the piece we took out.
We replaced it with a piece of sheetmetal. We
still
plan to replace the entire floorpan this winter.
We put Orca 77 on blocks so we could take the wheels in to get new tires and so we could replace the exhaust.
This is a picture of the undercarriage before the new exhaust. There should be mufflers on both sides of the spare tire cover.
