Progress has been slow during the summer. I had some new carpet on hand so I decided to pull most of the interior and install new carpet and inspect the floor, add new cardboard to the kick panels and just make improvements to the interior.

Removed the instrument cluster to rebuild it and replace the broken speedometer. It not only broke the spring but it apparently vibrated hard enough to come apart. Appears that the cable is also broken. Time to get this rebuilt.

Trying to clean up the interior that’s in pretty bad shape. The chrome garnish mouldings look good after a cleaning and waxing . Gonna try and mount the driver door interior panel on some new cardboard and see if that works ok. I have some new carpet but not sure if I’m using it yet or keeping the original. Plus nothings says 1980’s quite like some Sparkomatic speakers.

Flashback got outside today with its brother for a little sun and a good scrubbing with steel wool and comet. Also got the driver window reinstalled . A little more cleaning and scrubbing tomorrow and then it’s back inside to get the instrument clusters removed and a new speedometer installed. After that back to some mechanical attention.

Found some more goodies from the 84 Hot Rod Super Nationals . Program, frisbee, license plate, sew on patch and a participant plate. I’m sure the guy who kept this stuff put away for 40 years was as surprised to find a buyer as I was to find it. The program has one full color page of the Flashback 57 as the grand prize.

Awesome little marketplace find on these plates from the 83 and 84 Hot Rod Super Nationals.

I really need this thing on a lift for a while . Trying to clean 40 years of oil, grease and gunk on your back isn’t the most fun part of this project but it’s coming along. Chrome oil pan, oil filter and front steering arms look pretty good still on the are cleaned and scrubbed with steel wool.

I was wondering how the rearend housing had gotten covered in grease before I cleaned it . I figured it had lost a lot so I got new grease and limited slip additive and then find the drain plug stripped or the housing actually. So I stopped there while I figure out the best solution. Anyone ever retreaded the housing and installed a larger plug?
