t weber, that's a SHARP cat.

i've got too many pontiacs apart right now to list here. i'm easily sidetracked, what can i say?

i've been driving the 65 g/p that i bought last year and have been tinkering on the last couple months.
i rebuilt the carb, cleaned the lines, repaired the tank sender, replaced the rear axle bearings / seals, cleaned out the diff housing at the same time, installed a heater core, tuned it up, replaced the rear brakes,turned the drums, packed the front wheel bearings, adjusted the front shoes, installed an oem radio, replaced the dimmer switch and most of the dash bulbs, cleaned about 20 years of tx dirt from the interior and have another 20 to go. most of the above i expected, so no big suprises yet outside of the old girl's running condition. it's rare that i buy a car that's actually a basic runner this one's turned out to be pretty dependable so far.

on the list are the chassis [front and rear] bushings, springs, shocks, repair the wiring to the fuel guage,install some halogen headlight bulbs, service the trans, convert the front brakes to disc. after she's solid mechanically and i have one of the gto's done then the g/p will come apart for a major resto.
