Then next thing I need to attend to was the power steering leak.
It is a really troublesome part of many older cars and this 1976 Stingray is not going to prove to be an exception, in fact, it quite adapt to gushing power steering fluid.
Take a look.
Thanks for checking Part 3 coming up later today.

I had the chance to tackle a few things the need some attention on my 76 Stingray (#ProjectSR76).
Three things I worked today and only one had a resolution.

I never do this!!!
But I wanted to check on my old 1973 Mustang Sports Roof. #PRojectSR73!
I spoke with the new owner and he stated ” Hi Tim, I premiered it black, was going to get it painted but this Camaro came up for sale so I bought it instead. It’s basically in the same condition of the Mustang with the finished interior but in need of paint. It’s going to take awhile being that paint jobs are crazy expensive.
#SR73 has a roommate”
Nick as given #ProjectSR73 and wrap! He states: “I just got the mustang “wrapped” for half the cost of paint for now. I think it came out pretty nice, I will update you when I finish the the small details that I still plan on doing. The Wrap last 3-5 years with normal use, Being the car will be garaged and not washed on a regular basis it should last longer. PS; you really did a great job rebuilding this car, It runs and drives awesome! Thanks, Nick.”

Finally took sometime to put together a few video for #ProjectSR76.
I’m going to try to do some heavy duty editing and show the final work and my mess up. It’s pretty ugly. But it’ll be fixed.
Enjoy and subscribe via YouTube.
Thanks for checking in.

Every now and then you run across a “What the hell is this?” Look this over and tell me what you think.
Thanks for stopping by!!!

Videos coming up. But here is the before and after for my 76 Stingray’s seat. From this awful gray to a respectable black. I’m converting all the interior to black.
Before And After
Gray Carpet gone – Black temporarily in place
Will have to pull out the seat and carpet and put in heat shield, then trim the carpet. But it is going to look great.
Maybe the most fun you can have when restoring a old car is the tear down process. Discovering the hidden gems like signatures of the installer, factory repair tags and other unique things.
#ProjectSR76 is fun to work on for those reasons.
Check out the discovery and don’t forget subscribe updates here and on YouTube.
