The two hole pump is for L16/18/20. Four banger. Great donor for internal parts. I once bought a Toyota fuel pump that was also an organ donor. I suspect that design was used on many Japanese cars in the day

I saw him with his band. Maybe ten years ago? RIP.

Got it. Well, that may be how your life goes, but that's not how stuff works for me. Hahahaha!! I'm gonna toss the master in the ultrasonic cleaner and see what happens after that. If I can't get those valve seats out, I'll just leave them alone. As long as they are clean, they don't seem to be causing any trouble.

That's a cool old caddy! Probably gets about 5mpg

Took the front spoiler off after work & got it to the body shop for paint next week. Also got the front seats out just as the rain began - it's supposed to rain through tomorrow, so I figured a good time to get the upholstery done. Removed the upholstery & made a filler piece for the side airbag location. I'm also switching the cushions left to right, as the outside of the drivers one has more wear. The PO was on the heavy side and it shows in the compression and tears in the foam. Switching them means that the worn sides will be on the inside of either seat, so not likely to be an issue down the road. Had to cut a slot for the rear seat release on the passenger side. If I could get hold of the rights quick release I would put another on the driver's side since that has electric it's a lot slower to rake than the quick flip lever Dense foam was a large pad used as packing for my LUK RS clutch & DM flywheel kit, I really don't throw much out

Vacuum out passenger door this evening quickly, noticed a small flexible tab for holding a wire inside the door!! Proof the door light was really a thing….. or at least a thought anyways….. this is fun so far… not enough time in the day.

Many thanks to KATS for sharing years ago….

There is a proper name for the decipher……looking at the “white dot”, over or under letters of appropriate name…

Bought it off eBay, listing was for “BRAND NEW NIKKI FUEL PUMP 271070” for $100. Not sure what it was originally for. Pump only had 2 mounting holes. I just used the guts to retain my original pump. All pieces matched fine. Looks like jdm-car-parts sells an actual rebuild kit, for an eye watering $125.

Roof/door frame of body at top of quarter window showing some decay on drivers side, will need some repair.

Man I love Caddy's ! a 70 coupe de ville is still on my bucket list for a sunday cruiser

not bad ! he really did put in effort. Is this allowed by Ferrari ? Cause usually when you make replica's you have lawyers all over you 😂 It's cool but I wouldn't drive around in a replica lol

Great info, thx. Also of note, the original examples shown have a trunkbed plate with welded nuts in place of the provided plate, with welded studs- likely also for ease of installation. The original nut-plate solution is also how the roll bar was installed on my Works car. i can certainly understand why Mizukami went with the latter stud system, as the original welded-nut-plate solution requires 4 large holes to be drilled into the floorboard. A very subtle difference that 99.5% of enthusiasts would probably not recognize. (thatsa lotta nuts & studs talk)

Has to be a nice ride too. Potential buyers probably aren't bothered by the mpg's. $172,000 didn't get it, but they're working on a deal.

Quick video, and picture after 5 seconds of wire wheel……

Another Datsun GTO. 240Z this time. No reserve! https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1962-ferrari-250-gto-replica/
