It looks great, nice and clean. :thumb :thumb

Interesting concept for a 'catch can' or PCV delete, as it may be.

OK, and I'll bite; what's the jar next to the RF headlight?

I haven't taken the time to figure that out yet.

It looks to be some sort of homemade crankcase breather. There's a hose tapped into the oil pan. Do you think this could have been a remedy for blow by (worn rings)?

It looks like the previous owner had started to add A/C but never finished it. The condenser, fan, bracket, idler pulley, under dash components, and wiring but no compressor, hoses or drier. I did a seafoam treatment today and tomorrow I'm going to pull a part to see what I can find for front seats and dash pieces. Then stopping by Harbor Freight to get one of them cheap compression testers that Bryan was talking about. Won't the Kia rio seats fit?

Picked up some Kia Rio seats today from Pull a Part. I gave them a good cleaning and swapped them out without too much problem. I got finished after dark so no pics yet. I did take some before shots but I will post them all together. Fair warning, this interior looks kinda rough but not for long. ^o)

Yeah that's my '87 Brick. 57k original miles. I was a mustang guy till I bought her from a friend of my husband-in-law. I'll post some pics when I have time. I'm working about 18 hours a day right now and barely have time to get any sleep. :(

Hope to one day buy a black Metro and make me a GEONX... B-)
