I put a new filter and gasket on but there is still a small leak.I see a drip every once in a wile coming from what I think is the pan gasket. ( should be a very easy cheap fix.) I also installed new u-joints in the drive shaft. I've noticed after the car had sat for a little while and i would start it I might get small puff of smoke from the passenger side exhaust and it would quit immediatly but I was told it was probably valve stem seals and its an easy cheap fix , if i drive it often it doesnt do it. I think its from not driving it that much I was going to put in some oil treatment designed for valve stem seals but I hadnt got to it yet because it only does it if sits for a while I have had so much awesome fun driving this car and there are only a couple very easy things besides paint this car might need should you decide to fix them: 1) The float for the gas guage in the tank is stuck because when I bought this car it had sat for a little while 2) The small trans leak mentioned earlier 3) The car does need rubber seals for where the door glass meets the car 4) The heater core is bad and I have bought a new one that goes with the car In the pics there are tons of parts that go with this car , the ones I can remember are an extra hood and trim boxes of emblems and trim everything you see on the shelving extra windshield and passenger door glass an extra wing window assembly original steering wheel extra front bumper 2 upper and 2 lower grill sets 2 header panels and much much more... This car drives amazing stops like a new car and makes everyone i pass rubberneck looking at this car.I have tried to accurately describe this car to the best of my ability.
