She lives!
This project started out with a running, but wrecked 87 GT and a nearly identical non-running, but not wrecked 87GT. I swapped almost everything mechanical over.....what a project! Not sure I ever want to do that again.
Anyway, I got it running on Friday, but my body decided to fail a little bit and I spent the weekend in bed. Nevertheless, it runs and the cooling system is bled and everything works (well...everything on the car ๐).
I reinstalled the rear bumper and taillights today. All that's left are the shocks & struts (waiting for new ones to arrive), bleeding of the brakes and some misc stuff. Some of that misc stuff is the installation of a factory subwoofer system. The old car had one, but the "new" car didn't.
Everything should be finished this weekend.
