Installed an Accel tune-up kit. Plugs, wires, cap, & rotor. Old plugs looked great. No sign of any issues.

Bought a front bumper too. Now I get to wait while it's built and then shipped.

Walked by my 89 Heep, thought about summer, and said to myself, I gotta fix the A/C.

I primered them grey then painted them banner red all krylon. I plan on taking them off and having them and the front bumper powder coated.

Yeah I thought about that after I welded it up. I put the driver side strait back.

Pulled my old headliner out, scraped it clean. Then installed my new mossy oak camo headliner material. Reinstalled it.

How was it? I need to do mine. Was it messy under the headliner? What did you use to scrape it with?

I found out my Charcoal canister hoses are dry rotted. I've attempted to replace them. Time will only tell if it works.

Got it back from my old man who has had it since september. Wheeled it. Found out the drivers front hub bearing is shot, all three windsheald wipers are toast. The blinkers don't work. Its four thousand miles over due for an oil change. And the inspection sticker has run out. Oh and it has more road salt caked on it than I thought possible. Thanks for taking care of my rig dad.

Yes it was messy, but It actually came off fairly easy. I used a 2" wide paint scraper, and was careful not to stab into the board. It was really easy to do. I actually used the headliner material with the foam backing and used a headliner adhesive from Home Depot. I think it was by loc-tight or however its spelt. i have pics, but they won't attach. i have some in my photo album though.
