Frankie will be back 700 1990

Frankie, my '90 760T wagon, is due out of the body shop this weekend. A combination of (1) someone backing into me and driving off and (2) the hood release breaking and coming up at 60 mph caused this little visit to the auto body doctor. 2 used hood hinges, a headlight assembly and a few other assorted used and new parts and she should look good as she did when I got her. I still may have to replace the grill, depends if it will stay clipped in. After I get her back and this hurricane moves on through, it's time for tires and a coolant recharge so my a/c will keep me cool and comfortable.


Then there is still a list of stuff that I need to do as I can:

A- Driver door key cylinder is bad and won't open the door, so the passenger and drivers side key cylinders need to be swapped.

B- Driver door handle does not work.

C- Tailgate/wiper motor needs to be tightened to eliminate the rattle. Also need to replace most of those clips. (ordered)

D- Overdrive does not work, this is one of two things:
-a module that can be replaced (I can do this)
-the selenoid that attatches to the side of the transmission
(A little more investigating and I might be able to do this)

E- Install plastic spalsh pan (#3 since I've had the car!)

That's about it!

What are YOU working on?
Philip
