    Unboxed my fiberglass hood I got last weekend and unboxed (for the first time) my SC4 L88 hood scoop. I layed the scoop on the hood and was greatly dissapointed. The scoop is too big. I got it three years ago and never looked at it to see if it looked right. :( Time to see if I can find a smaller one.

    I pulled all the carpet on my car, all I found was surface rust on the floor:bananaman.
    I was worried because my windshield gasket leaks. Gotta get everything ready so I can get my car down to the hobby shop on Aug 8 and 9 and get it on the lift.

    Got the engine compartment cleaned and degreased...for the most part. More work to do tomorrow, was tired of cleaning what i couldn't see so i called it a day and came inside. Ran out of degreaser too, that kinda stopped me in my tracks. It was definitely dirty.

    Cleaned and prepped the oil pan for new gasket. Almost ready to put engine in the car. But first gotta get this steering finished up.
