    Door cards have speakers cut into the front doors, backs are OK, but I have more good ones if you need them.

    All the diesel stuff bar the block itself seems to work OK.

    I was hoping for a nice tan interior, but alas, not to be. no worries. Mines plenty neat enough as anyways.

    I do actually need a screw from one of the rear doors though...

    Hi Pete

    I notice in your engine photo that the rubber hose from the air intake goes down in FRONT of the engine? I have an 11/78 GLD and the hose from the air intake goes into the top of the engine/ crankcase???

    Do you know why they would be different? I have read about a mod that was done to prevent blow by (sp) however mine car may have not been modified at all which is a bit of a worry!

    Thanks

    Gary

    My diesel is also as your's seems to be.

    I saw this setup today while I was at Petes, also seemed to be connected to the vaccum pump. Pete Did mention some extreme lack of compression issues meant this one was hard to get moving under its' own steam. It's possible it had blow by issues as well.
