The engine still doesnt run... It will run though when I figure out why the injectors aren't working.

So in between the engine woes, we laid down some sound deadening stuff. Now the interior is ready for some carpet...

This weekend I got some needed parts. I assembled the rear axles, put the brakes on and then bled the system. I put gear oil in the transaxle and no leaks! sooooo stoked on that!

I did more wiring and got everything all wired minus some gauge stuff.

I still need to figure the intercooling part... hopefully that gets sorted out this week. As well I'm waiting for my friend to give me a base map for the Haltech so I can attempt to fire up the engine!

With all that other stuff done, I figured it was a great time to roll the car out of the shop and snap some photos... It's been 4 months since I took photos of the ghia with 4 wheels. The last time the car barely rolled... now it rolls around so amazing!

Here's some photos!















Thanks again for all the kind words and motivation to keep going on this build!

Hopefully the car can fire up this week!!

Enjoy!

I know theres lots of engine photos at the moment... but thats cause it's the part in focus right now. I have about 10 more wires to hook up and the Engine is wired!


I put the front wheels back on the car to see how the 175/55 15's fit. I like it alot!



The last bit of metal replacement was finished last as well, then Jesse and I started smoothing out back half of the car so we can paint it soon!


This weekend should be a busy one! Hopefully I will get a base map sent to me either tonight or tomorrow. I picked up the needed fuel bits and Axle pieces I needed today.

Tonight should be a good time in the shop and if everything works out Ill have the car on the ground again before I call it a night.

For those that are on instagram, @mdmvis is my ting. You can get the play by play action on there for this weekend!
