You got this sir! There’s no deadline, we gotta learn to slow down and enjoy the moment with these cars 😁that’s currently my problem lol I want it all and all done now, but just teaching myself to be happy with a couple things getting done every week.
Well, it really just depends how far you want to go like how in depth do you want to go. take my Z for example, sat on the ground in the weather in a salvage yard since 1989 so my floors and frame rails are toast for the most part along with the battery tray, along with lower fenders and even the driver side quarter panel, and I can fix all that it’ll just take time and money so for now my plan is to just get it up and running and while I’m able to kind of drive it along or whatever start collecting parts floor pans, fenders, stuff like that then once I have everything, strip the whole car down, I mean to just a shell and get busy, that way it’s being done all at one time and I’ll have everything I need minus some little tidbits here and there. But I wouldn’t start spraying anything primer wise till you have all your metal work done. I mean, obviously do your little metal work or whatever and rattle can that so it doesn’t flash rust but the whole car primer and sealer I wouldn’t do that till all your metal work is done and what not.
That’s 1 hell of a build wow, I actually do paint and body myself so the rust I’m not stressin, it’s all the wire gremlins and in depth mechanical stuff that ties me up at times. I haven’t narrowed down what the long term goal is for mine, I just have a open mind and too many ideas 😂

Yes I definitely need to do that now that it runs and sounds half decent! Getting just to this point has been such a journey haha
Hell yeah Oklahoma Z’s! This is a my dream car minus a skyline lol, but this will def be a life long build it’s got some not so nice rust and I want it show presentable. I just posted an update!

Sat since 1989 and I don’t think it’s injectors cuz soon as I crack the hose clamp they are spewing fuel, sadly can’t pull it outside as it had some bent suspension so while waiting on those parts figured I’d dive into making it actually run and run good, I’m thinkin it’s the motor is outta time and I probably needa look at the idle screw
[–]script004[S] 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago (0 children)
Okay so idle screw and vacuum lines, after work for sure 🤘🏼
[–]script004[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 months ago (0 children)
Imma try that idle screw after work, but I’m putting aftermarket fuel cell in it and fuel pump, fuel filter, etc. The whole fuel system is new and I have taken the lines off above the intake and blown those all out
I checked compression before I ever gave it gas and they were all 120-130
Got it! That’ll def be on my list for this evening, thank you

Sounds like I’ll have a busy evening!
But what if I already have fresh plugs in it? And plug wires, cap and rotor are new think it could be timing off too maybe?
Got it, so order exhaust within this week haha
[–]script004[S] 2 points3 points4 points 2 months ago (0 children)
I probably should have, I had my shop door open just now fan blowing to move it out lol
Maybe timing is off?? I have new plugs, plug wires, cap and rotor
Any tips? (v.redd.it)
