blue98ls1 Posted March 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Made a little progress. I installed another dash pad in the car. And we installed a Hurst Comp plus with a UMI short stick and Hurst shift knob. It made a huge difference. The stock shifter really sucks! A bunch of the parts we ordered for it came in, just need to make some time to install some of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue98ls1 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Last week we dropped my car off with Matt. He cut out the rusted through part by the drivers side strut tower and welded in a new section. He did an absolutely AMAZING job. You would never know it had rusted through. While he had the car we also had him weld in Spohn subframes. The car will be going to Kevin soon to have the engine bay area painted, Firehawk hood installed/painted, and since the rear drivers side panel also had a little bit of rust above the rear tire, he will be replacing that panel as well. Pics of Matt's amazing work: Before: http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x123/wannarace928/blueberry2012.jpg After: http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x123/wannarace928/IMG950223.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue98ls1 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Is that a common place for those to rust? Not sure. We've never seen another one rust all the way through like this. However, we have heard from other people they have seen it happen. Luckily, outside of this spot, everything else on the car was pretty much surface rust. The spot on the rear fender isn't really that bad. It is bubbling under the paint but hasn't ate through. Parts/bolts rusted everywhere, but almost all of it will end up coming off of the car and being replaced with aftermarket stuff. I wanted the body work out of the way first and any problems it had fixed before doing all of the mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pontiacfreak142 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Is that a common place for those to rust? Yep. Just had both of mine replaced last year because they had rusted through like tinas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue98ls1 Posted June 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 Decided to put a K&N intake on the car today, and ended up fixing a bunch of rust. This is what I started out with. http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x123/wannarace928/firebird01.jpg Sanded down all of the rust, used some rust eating gel crap just in case I missed anything. http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x123/wannarace928/firebird02.jpg Primed. http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x123/wannarace928/firebird03.jpg Goodbye rust! http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x123/wannarace928/firebird04.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
