Hi everyone, been busy with the 3 GS circus. The code Z is back from the shop and running great, I will give the details on the code Z restoration post. The White convertible GS is returning home from the shop tomorrow. And I'm knee deep in the Red coupe. We are in the middle of April and I have been solving problems as I go along, starting with the trunk weatherstrip being too short !!(see photo) First time I ran across this problem. So I went to the code z parts box and pulled a new Softseal weatherstrip and made the correction. That was easy ! Next I installed the tail light harness, not a problem tail lights & license plate light working except the back up lights are not working ? Add that to the electrical to do list. 5 New tires and center caps on Four 15" rims mounted on GS. Next I cleaned and painted the rocker panel moldings, they will mounted at a later date. Next I removed the the original cracked steering wheel and attempted to mount the restored Red steering wheel (2018) but the horn bar does not fit so I tried to shave it down with my Dremel tool, but after 3 1/2 hours of grinding and test fitting the bar is still not fitting in properly and the mounting screws are not reaching the bar.(see photo) I will try again tomorrow afternoon. If not, I cannot waste any more time. I must think of a plan "B" and deal with another electrical problem I found, When the GS is running the tail lights are on and the light switch is in the off position. Add that to the list... Oh and all the lights are flickering so I tested the voltage and It goes back and forth between 14 & 15 . That should be the Regulator OR Alternator.. Add that to my list ...
I need a longer sheet of paper
The fun continues...
Tony
