I know PartsHut also stocks it, some stores might be limited to color choices, but sure, give it a check out!

Make sure you take pictures of the HG process and tear down. Would be good for future ref. for others including my self I also am going to paint my engine bay when I do the clutch, I am going with Semi-gloss black High-solids. I think it'll look nice once done (Lots of crap to remove though, gawd!)

I used Dupli-Color Ceramic Engine Enamel in the "Pontiac Blue" Yes I know, a GM color lol. It matches fairly close and the Ceramic paint is very nice (I also used the Ceramic Gray Primer) Any parts store like O'rileys will have it. Hope this helps you

Lol! Yeah, don't punish the car. Key the owner!

I'm fairly surprised no one has said "EJ it!" yet. The EA82s are decently slow, being a 5spd helps, and an SPFI or MPFI swap would help it along as well as the Cams.

Ha! trust me. America is probably one of the rudest countries when it comes to parking and respecting other peoples possessions.

Went from this: To this:

OH! That ring. gotcha. How was the Snap ring on the Axle its self which holds the Ball retainer ring/race onto the shaft? I know those like to get bent. Glad you got the old boot clamps off!

We might just see some welded rocker action this weekend. I am planning on removing the passenger side door Saturday, cut out the old rockers, and weld in the new. Trying to get this done in one day so I can put the doors back on. And then repeat for the other side possibly during the week since its gonna be nice out. Can having no Midpipe on the EA81 make it rev more gutless then the EA82? Idle seems to drop way to slow after rev. Is this something with the choke or throttle perhaps?

Well, see if you can get boot clamps like this. They are SOOO much easier to install with simple tools (Pliers and or Wire cutters to crimp the locking end) http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=1029721 Cheers.

You can get good Boot clamps at NAPA. Get the kind with the ribs/teeth. They are very easy to install and work great.

I've never seen that. Doesn't even matter what Spline (23-25) I used an EJ axle boot on my EA axle once, fit perfect.

I am not on the quest of non rotted front fenders. The bottom rears on mine are gone, the mud flap was held on with one screw. I need 1983+ EA81 fenders, I think '80-'82 have the antenna on the Driver side vs the Passenger like mine. I have a Wanted ad going. Its a feeler for the mean time while I come up with money. I need to buy a Radiator and hoses first and some fluids to change out. I waxed my junkyard hood today, faded Calif. paint. but it brought back some of the color lol! No shine though, ah well. Gonna repaint the entire car some day once all the Body work it done. Its gonna be a Ski car rebirth!

Request to make Sticky. Mick, I'ma PM you about it and see what you say!

Must say, I like the DeLorian.

This is what happens when you get a scratch in your hood. The whole structure was compromised.

Gotta see some pictures of this custom crossmember and shifter!

What year is this motor? My '83 EA81 doesn't have this, that I can remember.

I'm usually pretty good at playing the random part identification game, but this one is a tuffy. I would also like to know what this is! I'm sure someone has one as well. -Tom

Yep, was thinking stainless wingnuts as well. Although a wingnut looking wingnut would be tacky on this lol. I'll have look around and see what I can find in a M6x70 pitch? Tom, if you can indeed find them, I would like them No real rust though, you know me

I recently had a Board memeber tell me not to long ago, that no matter what I did to my Air cleaner cover, it wouldn't look good because it was so rusty, and that I should just paint it with hammered paint. Well, here were the results. You be the judge. Removed: Stripped: Wire Wheeled: Primed: Painted: Finished: Please, Do not, tell me what I can and cannot do. This took me all of 1 hour from start to finish, I think it was worth it vs a Hammered finish. Now I just need to refinish the rest of the Air cleaner assembly. Also, where can I get new ones of these? I would like stainless is possible.

This is how I've joined the new lines, Both hard lines almost touch in the junction, the rubber hose/clamps are just there to make sealed connection as I didn't want to use Unions and flares. Rear suspension, Tank, Diff, Driveshaft all up. Open cat. Mid pipe broke off long ago, the other ownered tried to clamp it back on, but it wasn't sealed so I found. Gonna make my own exhaust. Need a new Radiator.

Whats the stroy on that Tan EA82 Sedan/3-Door in the background behind the fence?
