In my personal opinion, a set of oldschool Musclecar wheels would look killer on that car... like a set of Cragar 17's... :)

Yep, these are really bad ass, I think i will go for them or like them. :)

That's the oxygen sensor on your exhaust manifold most likely. Your battery and alternator looks to be in good shape. Nice work

Your distributor just looks dirty clean it up, especially the contact where to attach your spark plugs. Should be fine but it never hurts to put new in if your questioning it.

Tomorrow check list:

Drain the oil put some new oil in it. change the oil filter also the fuel filter and the air filter, air breather.

I will clean the cap, also where the plugs go in.

I will take the plugs to the shop and gap them to 0.35 put them in, then put on the wires.

After tomorrow:

Hook up the rad pipe.

Fill the gas tank and put the gasoline treatment, then pour the engine oil stop leak into the crankcase and run it for 30 mints.

Get the new wipers hooked up.

Get the windows clamps setup.

I will try to put in the brake release handle.

It's not really that expensive I was surprised for the rare parts to this car.

28$ for the plugs.

30$ for the wires.

11$ for the air filter.

14$ for the oil filter.

32$ for the oil.

1$ for the fuel filter.

17$ for the wipers.

That was 120$ for the whole stuff I got for now.

But the thing is the new tools I've got is about 350$.

I don't really care for the money right now because Im not giving it to some dumbass to do the job and **** the car up again.
