Re: Rodstored-72's 1986 DD build

hello all,
I was able to figure out the obdii wire situation, I posted the result/findings in my thread in the electrical section (for those interested). I have been busy trying to knock out some “to do’s” on the list. I decided to take a week off (birthday time…) I cleaned & painted the cowl vent screen, it was not in too bad of shape so I decide to keep it. I also decided to mock up the fenders so I can start with the permanent mounting situation for the engine's underhood fuse box & wiper fluid container. Those with a sharp eye might notice a difference about it. I decide to try my hand at installing “rivnuts” or nutserts, I tried the youtube version of the nuts & spacers method. It seems ok, although the big key to this is being able to apply pushing force while turning. Also for those that might try it for the first time…. MAKE SURE the whole is just big enough to push in the nutsert, the bigger the hole the less chance of it biting.. in my experience anyways. On with the pics….
