Overview
This has been and will continue to be a relatively long ongoing project, but hopefully it will be done (or at least drivable) someday. I bought this K5 in March 2022. It’s my first Squarebody, or project car of any kind actually.
I knew it had some rust, but being dumb and inexperienced I didn’t realize how much it had until I got it home and started pulling the interior (which was mostly complete) out.
Finally rust free, engine/transmission (L92/6L80E) sitting in the frame, and ready to start on the front coilover conversion.
More to come! I will continue updating as I go. Thanks guys.
