    That was a good cleaning, fix and rebuild. Now it requires a restoration with upgrades 👍

  • @bespincustompropsbombarta8300

    I'm going to take a guess that whoever did this, didn't know bearing kits and spare parts were available

    So my original 1985 might be worth something? I need a new front shock and a resistor

    You should resist using normal mineral oil with plastic it has an effect over time you really should use silicone oils and greases lovely job otherwise

      @surrealrc3769  Před 6 lety

    The tires are a horrible job. But okay, the rest is okay.

  • @RedLP5000S
    @RedLP5000S Před 4 lety

    Isn't there a re-re now? Kinda pointless.

    • @surrealrc3769
      @surrealrc3769  Před 4 lety +1

      It's more about the fun in restoring, people restore 1970 porches, even though they sell 2019 models

    • @legoproductions7286
      @legoproductions7286 Před 4 lety

      no its not, a 1985 car if in great condition is worth more than a re-re..
