    For those wondering, the Fender Washers are from Mcmaster Carr:
    it's a m6 countersunk washer (97280A1237)
    with a stainless m6x1.0mm-25mm countersunk bolt

    I like how you painted all the parts separately then assembled them. That's very thorough.

    Love the soft soothing calming music. When I'm working on my Third Gen there is a much more "PG-13" sound track of foul language in the garage.

    Thanks for that. Will be changing panels between 2 cars this week, I hope. That gap between the hood and panels seems to be normal, both my bodies and others I have seen.

      that hood was zero gap on 1 side and like 3/8in on the other.

    Nice work! Do those ducts on your turn lights hook up to anything? I have a '91 with the 5.7L and she runs a little hot if it's 30 degrees celsius out, any thought?

    • @3rdGenGuy
      @3rdGenGuy  Před rokem

      those ducts are mainly for the brakes, Although they could be used elsewhere.
      also, anything under 230F isn't overheating in a 3rd gen.

      with the GFX, I just tapped the OEM studs for m6 nuts.
      the stock stuff is a weird sheet metal nut.
      fender bolts part # exe are listed in the top of the comments.

      ya, on my 1992, the bolts are M6x1.0mm.
      I used 25mm long bolts, although I think 20mm would have worked.
