Motor and workshop porn. Because pelicans luv Pics!

[Norm Faustino]

Just a couple of pics of the resurrection of scratchy, my 9 year garage queen which has been moved cross country and back without actually being driven a single mile and after removing the tail,
it seems to have grown it back. I always wanted to swap the huge turbo tail for a 75 rsr tail because it looks so much better, so I bought this one from a fellow pelican and I love it.
My budget is really limited so I have had to do a lot of scrounging and reusing of old stuff, but in the end I think it will be a crowd pleaser.
It's coming along well so keep the pressure on me guys, so I don't go another 9 years without driving it.

Looks good Norm! Dig the matt black shroud and red (bordeaux?) valve covers.

What's left to be done before it's driveable again?

That is sexy. Last night out for some ice cream, the fiance yelled at me to quit "facebookin" on my phone. Told her I'm not on facebook. She looked at the phone and coined a new term... "Pelicanin" hahaha.

I took it apart (removed the rubber) in order to paint it but the fiberglass was so badly cracked that I traded it for a bunch of stuff that I actually needed. I still have the rubber lip in mint condition. Asking $250.00 if you want to see a pic let me know. The problem is that the size makes it difficult to ship.
