Re: what did you do to your ride today?
You can get windo-weld at auto parts stores for $24, although it is more of a paste than that pour stuff it works the same way because its urethane..Travelor wrote:88_GTU wrote:Filled my mounts with poly and picked up a like new rear louver that I'll probably never install.
Where did you pick up the fill, and how difficult was it to mix?

Re: what did you do to your ride today?
OK, been meaning to post as I went but didn't. In this last month I replaced the front control arm bushings, front struts, front rotors and brake pads. Rear shocks, springs, drums and pads. I put a new shifter plate in the car that doesn't have the "Press brake to shift" worn off. (Yes I’m OCD with my car).
I had the car power polished 4 times with 4 different levels of polish.
I bought a car shampooer!!!! LOVE IT!!!! Thus, shampooed the car.

Re: what did you do to your ride today?
I've got some of that stuff too, but never got around to using it. I have no idea where it is anymore, but I can buy another tube. I'd like to fill in some of my replacement mounts before I finally put this car on the road.Slinky wrote:You can get windo-weld at auto parts stores for $24, although it is more of a paste than that pour stuff it works the same way because its urethane..Travelor wrote:88_GTU wrote:Filled my mounts with poly and picked up a like new rear louver that I'll probably never install.

Today I removed everything related to steering and many many other parts that were on the way, actually it would had been easier to drop the drivetrain first.

Might have both Beretta's sold to the same person. Will find out Tuesday or Wednesday.

Poor Pontiac. I got mine running last night. Plan to button up a few things and get it on the ground driving today.

Re: what did you do to your ride today?
Greetings from the past Beretta-addicts.....
On Monday, while my son was over, we slipped in the new Battery, to test the R & R on the ICM we replaced two weeks ago. After a 14 month ( yep, that's right ) nap, my Turquoise Baby, after the very first turn of the key, roared to life! Another happy moment shared with my Son.......
Next Step.....Clean the Beretta, rotate the tires, change the upper and lower radiator hoses, fluids and a new CAT......

Picked up a heap of a 90 GT for dirt cheap and started stripping it. Strong motor and trans but almost no brakes and tons of cancer.

Re: what did you do to your ride today?
I drove the Yellow Indy around and hit town with her today (I usually stay out in the less populace areas, and I got hit by almost every single D@^^! stop-light I came across (all but two or three, out of ~15-20?), which helped to remind me why I avoid populace areas!).
Two days ago I replaced the leaking (and actually cracked) aluminum oil-supply tube to the turbo's dedicated oil-cooler on the '90 "T-Type" Turbo 'Retta with some fresh copper tubing. Home Depot's new credit-card-like scan-system flubbed-up when I had a few feet of the tubing cut, so the nice lady at the register told me just to take it for free since the plumbing people were all busy at the moment -nice deal! H-D has always been good about that, not many stores accept that kind of responsibility for keeping the check-out lines moving... No currenyt oil-leaks on the car, for the first time in over a year. Now if I can just get the !$@&! speedometer working right, I could drive the car around regularly!
