The grill is still not back in the car due to the front bumper having to
be removed to install the last mounting bolt in the bracket on the oil
cooler and the electric fan. My friends shop is real busy and he can not
do it right now and I am not physically able any more to remove the
bumper myself. The thermocoupler to automatically operate the fan was
not in the installation kit I bought. It is supposedly on it's way. Will
also be adding a 35 amp switch to the fan to allow it to work on the
thermocoupler or manually on & off. The switch came 2 day's after I
ordered it. I can park the car in front of my friends shop in the shade
to re-do the double factory pin stripe but it was to damn hot last week
and is now raining with a vengeance for probably the next week so that
is out. I cut the letters spelling American Motors out of the dark smoke
window tint for the windshield and made the jig to make a straight
reference line across the windshield to install them but then again the
weather will put the kibosh on that too. I guess I will have to dig out
the AMX fender flairs and pick the best ones and start stripping them so
I can paint them. Damn weather.
