Getting somewhere with the car finally
Took these last evening. Before i can start the car up, I have to do the following:
-header gasket
-drill out some of the header flange bolt holes
-tranny lines
-water lines
-radiator hoses
-intercooler water tank mounting & plumbing
-finish bottom of downpipe
-finish TIG weld downpipe
After that, to DRIVE the car, I need
-driveshaft
-brake master cylinder and lines
-reinstall windshield and drivers seat and seatbelt
Here are the photos I took

Im putting a window air conditioner inthe passenger side window Don. LMAO!!
Here are a few more photos I took last night of my further downpipe progress. I think Im going to leave it open like this for now so i can concentrate on other ****. I can at least start the car up with the exhaust like this.
Yes that is light oxidation on the turbo. nothing much I can do about it except get it coated. no $ for that right now so I am going to make a shield to go around it.
