Floridan Surfer, what are you using under the hood to deaden sound? I am about to embark on a similar project later this year.

Look at this on eBay:

Comes from Israel, would be way more expensive once shipping, tax and import fees are put in.
 
Finally drove the poser driveway princess!

Replaced windshield wipers
Moved turning signals to side markers (almost as easy as changing the wipers)



Installed scangauge. (A/C turns off sometimes and now I know I'm running a little hot. Ordered new OEM fan clutch)


Blends in with the dashboard pretty nicely



Installed a new to me roof rack ( got a great deal on from a member)
 
I would paint the areas under the front bumper black. IMHO, the white paint near bumper the front takes away from the lines of vehicle. I do admit that is one awesome 80.

Yes, that is the plan! Maybe this weekend unless I finally go wheeling
 
Took my trailer in its first outing.

HP power steering line
A/C tension pulley and new belt
 
Found a $15 used hazard switch to use as the CDL switch, installed it, did the seven pin mod.
 
Weekend started early.

Installed this:

Was made by a local welder for fun and profit and possibly as a prototype. Not all the holes line up great and some of them are funny shapes. On the other hand, $250. Needs better paint job.

Discovered this:

Wonder what the story is behind that. It's worse than it looks, and i'll probably find someone to weld on something to strengthen that position before i do any serious winching.

I finally got to drive mine...seems like no big deal but I was in Thailand for a month and nice to be back for spring in the north and my LC ready and waiting for me for a great summer.
