It does a nice job but loses its effectiveness REALLY quickly. What you really want (and what they dip cars in, etc.) is phosphoric acid, as it eats all the rust AND leaves a layer of protection against the rust (many other acids just eat the rust and leave bare metal). On a side note, are you sure that sick feeling wasn't your mind playing tricks on you to get that new fuel system in? Looks good!

Thanks guys, yeah it definitely is some good stuff.
hahaha, ya solomon, it may just have been. I was very happy with my progress today, the plan is to finish everything up after work tomorrow.
I have to disagree with you Stephen. I have had some rush that I took a wire wheel to. Latter that year I was cleaning up a larger area around that location and the bed liner was untouched by the wire-wheel while the rest of the paint was coming off with ease. Plus I am lazy and don't have patients for priming then painting.

Well replacing fuel lines is fun. I just finished going through the lines and have cut it in two places, right before the tank and close as I could to the front of the car. I still need to figure out how I am going to get the hard line at the front out. I would still be going but I took a bath in some 91 and it was burning some. Here is the picture of the sending unit that is coming out, only two studs made it the rest I had to grind off.

Alright Homies she is all done! It's weird being able to hear your fuel pump when you are sitting at idle but she is definitely working well! Thanks to David for helping me with the new studs and huge thanks to Alex that helped me get to actually run, and everyone who contributed when I was trying to figure out the issue. Also can't forget Ziggy, who made sure I had everything I needed for this. Here are the pictures of how she looks now.

Alright yall, now for the big update update that I have kept very secret. When I bought the car the headliner was in terrible condition, it was falling down and the dude had put push pins into it just to hold it up, at first I thought, ya cool it looks like a pillow but over the past year it has been a pain. Here is what she looked like just under 5 hours ago after removing all the push pins. So last week I went shopping to pick out the material I wanted to use for my headliner, felt or fleece was what I heard was the best to use so that's what I searched for. Went through everything trying to find a colour that I liked, eventually ended up with black, then started asking myself whether I should go with a cool design. Spoke with the sales person that worked there and after a bit found out she had a sick fabric stashed in the back (the ones that were on the floor were not to my liking). As soon as she brought it out I knew that was what I wanted to do. So Terry and I went to work today to put it all together. As you can probably tell from all my babbling I was pretty pumped about doing this and am extremely happy with the result, so without further ado. Just as a side note, visor will be done soon and I will post pictures soon with them finished.

Thanks for all the kind words guys!! I do agree with Terry though, you will all need to see it in person.
Hahaha, Michael it is not, I had the work light on to light it up.
Thanks for the link Terry, stuff looks like some good quality!

Alright so Terry, Alex and my self finished up last night, and here are the results. Terry and I both feel we have learned a lot from this experience and that the results have turned out so well that we will offer this as a service. You provide us with what ever material you want as your headliner and we will redo the headliner and visors for you. As soon as we decide on pricing we will create a post in the advertising section.

Hahaha, one business at a time. I do neither so I would have to start another business selling them!!
Thanks Jason! Yeah I took a good amount of time, and was very anal while doing the visors last night.

Thanks!! I got 2 meters, but if you are just doing a plain colour with no pattern that I have to match you could do with 1.5 meters.

I am not sure what the width is, all the fabric rolls at fabric land are the same width and are all doubled, so that after they cut it you can open it up. If you can't find that measurement than add a 2 feet to the width of your headliner width, using the tabs as your guide(they are the widest points) or use the top of your door as your guide. Sorry almost forgot, fleece or felt is the way to go, fleece is what mine is.

As most of you probably saw, I took the tow truck home on saturday. Anyways finally cracked her open today cause purolator was supposed to come, still haven't showed up, so I could replace my crank pulley. Thing is I didn't realize how bad it was till I saw the following. I have since cleaned out the area and am awaiting the the parts I need. I will probably replace the lower timing cover at a later date, but because this was unexpected It won't be done anytime soon. Plus the crank pulley will be covering everything that is exposed.
