djmtsu will become famous soon enough
Finally brought home the GS from Chattanooga. It had a fuel leak at the carb fittings. Someone left out one of the crush washers on the banjo going into the carb. Easy.

Next weekend is going to be a busy weekend. I am going to be swapping out the rear axles, rebuilding brakes, and installing the interior bits. I also am going to start stripping the engine bay in preparation for the RB Holley carb kit, radiator and FMOC.

I just ordered new outer window seals (top of the door), new steering column covers, new hatch struts, and some other little things like the copper washers for the oil cooler lines, and a box of clips for the windshield trim. Wednesday I believe I am going to be able to get to Chad's to get the interior parts, and pick up the BBS wheels.

The car has a homebrew exhaust system. Stock exhaust manifold, straight through to a HORRIBLE muffler that sounds like poo poo. Attaching a pic below. That is NOT a dual outlet, but rather a 2 into 1 muffler tip. And notice the super awesome USDM hanger.



Any suggestions for a decent muffler? Lol.
