Fixing mechanical issues

Its time to fix those mechanical issues on this car. First all four corners is getting new brakes and bearings.

Also power steering is busted, its leaking and need to be fixed. Bigger problem is rear; bushings are totaly busted and needs to be changed. It is a much intens job and going to cost more money then i was prepared. But it has to be fixed, this car is driving like a shit now.

There is also horrible noise when speeding hard, that might be turbine or it is just coming from joints becourse rear is so loose. Also rear is leaking oil; need to be fixed too.

Then i have a funny job, blower motor is busted and needs to be replaced. I have done it once before to Caprice so I know how fun that is to change it under dash.

Water temperature meter isnt working, needs to be re wired.

When these are done first, then we will figure out what else there is...


We are very fortunate to have good local American car shop, Pasi Mahlamäki http://www.autokorjaamomahlamaki.fi/. He is good and reasonable priced. I know he can fix everything.
