Lokar linkages got discolored from that too. *Needs a few trim clips (have trim) *Needs glove box lock *Needs front left bumper/fender corner piece *Needs rear axle seal *Needs driver's side spindle: Only to make it a little tighter. There is some where on the spindle where the kingpin goes through. Does not effect safety. *Could use a headliner. it is original and a little rough. It is complete and does not hang down. however. *Intake has a slight seepage at thermostat housing. but has never leaked more than about a cup of fluid between oil changes *Needs electric motor conversion for windshield wipers -motor has been re-built several times. *Needs turn signal switch assembly-turn signals currently do not function This car is FAST. SOLID and complete. With these few tweaks it will be a head-turning Custom Rod that will turn more than a few heads. All parts that have been used are top quality and the ride is smooth.
