I have a new windshield now! $268 for it, but at least it is nice not staring at a crack the whole time I am driving.

Also, next time I put it on a lift, I will get better shots of the exhaust job this dude did. It is perfectly welded and placed.

One of the things I love about my Cat is the interior is Perfect. Aside from that steering wheel, which I have since fixed.

I drive on Georgia roads. :(

To tell you the truth, I don't know what it is, and that scares me.

That looks like a nice 84. Definitely a good foundation for your project. That so called "black goo" looks to me like you have an oil leak at the back of your engine somewhere. You can already see it on the pipe on the right side of the transmission crossmember. I would clean everything off and start looking around your oil pan gasket, rear seal, the back of the intake manifold and valve cover gaskets. Also check your power steering hoses and tranny pan gasket area... To me though it looks like oil.

I need to get some new valve covers, and it is leaking from somewhere else as well, even though it looks really bad, that is from it leaking over a period of time, the leak is rather small actually.

And to the new dash offer. No thanks. I love my woodgrain! :D
