    ps, hood dampers would be badazz, you should do those
    Thanks man!! I thought about getting some hood dampers, but after seeing how the hood will open only so far, I have to pass on them. The car will be at the local meets / shows once complete. You can bet that

    Session 020:
    (This has been one of the worst sessions)

    Rear under carriage cleaning

    I knew the back was nasty as well, but had no idea it would be such a PITA to clean.

    Got to love the wheel dollies. Moving the hatch around with nothing up front. Flipped her around in the garage to work on the a$$ end. Yeah, each time I jack the front end up now I have to lift the front end to slide the jack underneath. Yeah, I'm that strong







    See why this $hit is so nasty:



    I cleaned the back end for about 2 hours taking small breaks in between. This is the result:









    Still have some more cleaning to do as well. I'm going to pull the entire rear suspension off for cleaning and undercoat everything including the wheel wells

    Got tired of cleaning the rear so I decided to switch things up a bit and clean the bay.
    My brother recommended AJAX, so that is what I used:



    Get it on there nice and good:



    How do I remove this clip? It's located in the corner below the brake booster:



    Then I was curious about the stains in the engine bay and decided to test a spot by sanding it down after cleaning:



    Then I went to work with my razor blade removing the residue from the cowl opening below the windshield:



    That's it for now. I'll be back hopefully soon with some more pics

    Thanks for looking
