virus projects?
 
Hey all

Like many of you I am "working from home" for the next couple of weeks. Yes, I will do some stuff for work, but I'll realistically have a bunch of time.

So, any thoughts on a "high value car project" that I can work on? My 91 is currently in really good order with nothing really wrong.

Since I have a lot of time, are there any thoughts on a good project and/or preventative maintenance I could look into?

Thanks!

My back went out last Sunday and been recuperating mostly. Once I feel better, I am thinking brake fluid flush. Since I installed speed bleeders about 2 years ago, is a one man job.

That’s all part of brake fluid flush.

I bought a 1991 ZR-1 red metallic w/ chrome A molds, gorgeous, from a guy that has a fuelie from each year in a private museum. Started the Z project 17 years ago and lost interest. It didn’t run, clutch hydraulics shot, radio and antenna no work and much else no work. We pushed it out and winched it on my trailer. Oh did I mention it’s gorgeous. Will put up for sale in April. My timing is bad but it sure is gorgeous.

I need to do that too, along w finally clay bar and waxing. I’m like one of those people that doesn’t like to finish off exterior until mechanicals are in the condition that a shiny exterior suggests.
Weird I know.

Im the same way... just seems like when its mechanically perfect, it then "deserves" to be polished up.... but not until then...LOL

Yes exactly. Not sure where I picked up this “concept”.
