1945 is now mine!

Quoting mechacode:
I have the original rearend from this car, been quite awhile. It was barely a shell last time I saw it.



I think you picked up that rear end the day before i picked up the shell. And no, he doesnt have the original gas tank. I took it off this car because i didnt want it getting surface rust inside it while it was sitting in the barn and i sold it about a month before you bought the shell.

Yes, that black stuff behind the bearing race was melted plastic. That used to be an oil guide of sorts.

I found that out after taking mine apart. Things were hot, no doubt.

Took a couple pics after washing it at work. Finally had a chance to clean my garage up a bit with the nice weather.

I'm really needing DSMlink. I'm so damn sick of my knock sensor picking up every stupid little thing thats going on. That, and I need bigger injectors and don't want to tune with the translator anymore.

Took a couple more pics the other day after washing it:

The transmission I assembled is almost to 3000 miles but is making noises. Luckily I found a good trans/t-case combo for 125 so I'm just waiting on some Diaqueen trans fluid to arrive and then I'll swap it. Car is running okay, knock sensor still sucks. I'm rocking 20-22 psi but I'm running out of fuel at 22. A friend of mine has some 750's that I'll put in to take care of that issue. If not, then I'll have to get a 255 wally.

Was able to mount the tires I bought off of Cam, Nitto 555zr's 235/45/R17. Mounted them on my stealth TT rims that I just finished painting black. I like the new look, not nearly as flashy as the 18's and better grip.
