whats the status now?
Still where it was, I need to pull out the subframe and get all the suspension powdercoated before I put the engine in. I have been gone on my days off the last couple of months.
Damn Mike, it’s been awhile since I’ve seen you…
man, your DA has come a long way…
You still stay out in our area? Dude, I need you to check out my paint… Tell me what I can do to fix it… I think it’s pretty bad.
Yeah it’s been a while. Im not down there too often anymore. But when Im down there I can check it out for you.
626-373-4865. thanks mike.
Bay looks great so far!
Wow, just wow! That engine bay looks awesome. I wish mine looked like that…

I think im going to die. Trying to order all of these parts is giving me a headache.
Ha! I feel your pain. I spent so much time looking thru OEM parts catalogs online, various websites for fasteners and what not… it’s quite a task. (and you’re doing a LOT more than me)
I ordered what I THINK is everything I need. Took me about 2 hrs of looking through the online catalog and trying to decipher those small images. Then I walked down stairs and instantly saw atleast 5 different things I needed to order that I forgot. AHHHHHHHHHHHH! I just write them down in my notebook for the next order. I need a break.
yeah, get used to making many many orders. I can’t even begin to guess how many times I contacted Scott about another round of parts… I’m glad to hear you’re working on the project though. I can’t wait to see your’s and Phat’s cars. Makes me REALLY want to paint my engine bay. Then we could have 3 new white IC builds
My OE part orders arrived. And a handfull of parts back from the powder coater.
Bay looks great man, can’t wait to see the refinished pieces installed
Awesome! Can’t wait to see the finished product!
After 4 more OEM orders I have to sort everything out into separate boxes for the areas they will go.
Haha! Good luck with that, I hope you have some of those part numbers written down somewhere cause some of those small pieces just look generic and it’s hard to remember where they go if you ordered them a long time ago. I’ve still got a box full of leftovers, many of which I’m not so sure where they go, lol.
Colin - I already forgot what atleast half of them go to.
Rack Cleaned, Bolts Cleaned, Subframe freshly coated, Rubber Grommets Restored
what did you use to clean the bolts?
P21s total auto wash. It. Gets most everything off, but if your stuff is as greasy as mine was then you will go through a few tooth brushes.
Got some better pictures instead of the phone camera.
Pushed the car into the street.
What’s that truck doing there?
