Here are a few more.





I like this one for some reason. It's a good viewpoint. Just beautiful imagery!



This pic shows the righthand side heater control valve/vent- it is open.
I sprayed it with a healthy dose of PB Blaster to make sure it doesn't freeze up.
Surprised that the old paint is still adhering.

The left side one also was open (of course), but had some light surface rust- I sprayed it, too. It was tricky getting the camera into position. (tight under there).

A tech adjusted the valves cold, about a thousand miles ago. They should still be in spec. I never drove it hard, am a little anal about that sort of thing.

I found the invoice with a compression check 83,221 miles (Now 95K miles). (When my brother owned it, I purchased in 1990, about 2000 miles later).
For what it's worth, this is what was typed by Prestige Imported Car Service, Ltd, Baltimore, MD 21228, dated 23rd Feb, '84.
