Finally tackling the windshield wiper motor? After that, it's a matter of nuts and bolts then this car is reassembled.

Yeah. That plate I welded in is an effort to cover the hole that goes through the bulk head. The "old" passenger side bulkhead covers the hole and this side would have been almost a straight shot into the blower motor. So I'm putting that plate in, bondo over it to seal it. Paint it and boom, it'll work like I need it to. Of course because it's hidden under the plastic cowel fascia, I'm not really worried about "finish" ya know?
Also put in the RHD ebrake. That was a challenge to say the very least. finally got the old one unhooked. put in the RHD handle and found I no holes. I didn't realize that the threads also flipped even on something as mundane as the brake handle. Bastards. Holes were drilled through and it was nutted and bolted on for now. I'll eventually weld the nuts to the bottom but it'll suffice for the time being. Had to pull the steering column back off as I forgot to put it on the shaft. Found the rubber boot in disrepair, so I had to fix that. Put the red stitch 202 steering wheel on part of the way so I could steer it around the shop. After work this week I hope to get my hole saw figured out and get the wiper motor hole drilled so I can then drill the nut holes and tack weld the nuts to the bulkhead and get the wipers finally finished. It sounds soooo good coming right off the cat header. maybe I'll just run one resonator and split the pipes at the rear subframe and have twin 2.5" chrome tips just inside the ss3 rear splitters? -------------------- |

I didn't. There was so much extra work to do, I didn't bother because I knew how old the motor was from the clip odo. I'll get to it eventually, but all I have is timing belt for it. All will come in spring .

Started in on the wipers tonight.... The bane of my existence.
But I first got these in the mail today  Just don't know if I'll be getting the JDM fenders done and on the car right now. One of them needs some work, it's pretty rough. Got the right side redrilled and wiper arm bolted in.  Gotta flip the middle yet  Gotta seal up the left side too  I do have the motor hole drilled, but the bolt holes for the motor are not. Not sure yet how I want to solve that either. Most likely going to be forced to weld.

I meant to ask, is that fender a real JDM fender or is this the one you had to convert?

Real Jdm. But still needs work, they are kinda beat Up.
In other news my rhd center console is from an st205 with No airbags.... The center pocket is deeper. Good except that now the airbag comport doesn't fit under it. Blows .... Kinda pissed.
