from the: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it dept."

which I imagine is a stone's throw away from the: "While I'm in there division"

cont

31 y.o. electrical connections. Once cleaned up, are like brand new. The amber housings are still transparent & very clear. I guess there is some benefit of an engine that over time has coating everything around it in a fine mist of oil!!!



All bushing back there are tight & still in pretty good shape. Everything is cleaning up nicely. I wish I had more time & money; I'd go thru everything. Without hesitation.

The trailing arms are like new. I can't explain how overwhelmed I am with this car. I have never seen a product of any kind built with this kind of quality. Gentlemen, I think I've got a winner here.

Keep it up. One thing that's always impressed me is that 30 years later these cars continue to be as good as they are. It's obvious that, in general, the guys who built these things used the best materials and methods they could come up with at the time.
