To do list part 1

Okay, this is kind of obvious that I need to make to do list. That one that I had on the right was from my previous El Camino, but actually describes pretty much what I need to do to this El Camino too, with lot's of more than that.

The windshield is one of the most notable from the outside, and El Camino wouldn't pass the inspection with this kind of windshield.

Then there are those headlights. All four. Although I bought two "angel eye" headlights, way way back and I don't know should I install them, but I need two more. These are 5 3/4" headlights and luckily I can buy them from my work.

Then I need to buy whole brake booster set up.

And under the body we need driveshaft. This was a bit of a surprise, or I didn't remember it missing.

And while we are under, we need also exhaust system. 

Wheels and tires of course. Those were just for the travelling from the seller to the shipping yard.

So, at least I need to get wheels and tires, driveshaft and brakes, so that I can take if off the garage and do something outdoors, like power washing and maybe some rust blasting. 

Well, I have started cleaning the cabin and took out garbage by hand, mostly, and then some vacuuming. 

Six bags of garbage. Well, at least it's a start. 

Been a while

Yeah, it's been awhile. The El Camino has sat in the garage for almost two months and I haven't done anything, except a bit of arranging the garage. I had the whole end of summer, whole autumn and start of the winter to sort it out, but...

At least it is in the warm garage now. Okay, it has been there, idling all alone the whole time, but I have been busy in life.

The El Camino spent three cold weeks in the Finnish winter weather, outside in the lot of the shipping company. One of the first things to do in the garage was to shovel the snow off the bed.

After a  few days of sitting in the warm garage, I took a look what I have actually bought.

It is a bit of dusty, but considering it has been sitting in the Nevada desert for quite awhile, it's no wonder.

I just love that cowl induction hood. And this is actually working one. Not just a bulge on the hood.

That front end is just... Fantastic!

Okay, I have started cleaning the interior, which I'll tell you more about in a future post and YouTube-channel video.

Till next time!
