IT LIVES AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!

I resurrected this thing. I pulled the head and ground the valves, replaced the piston rings and broke the glaze on the cylinder walls. When you overheat one of these engines, seems the first thing to go are the exhaust valves.

I purchased a T-boned black b14 just like it and swapped everything over. Airbags and computer were swapped. Thursday it got a new windshield and last night I pulled a deep vacuum on the A/C system. Found out that the factory uses PAG 100 oil so I will add an ounce or 2 to make up what was lost in condenser swap.

My 17YO son will be driving it. He gets to pick whatever color he wants it to be. We will paint it in my workshop you see in the airbag pic.
