Google does not archive binary Usenet content. It archives plain text only,
so pictures are not allowed in Google Groups. Most internet service
providers (ISP) give their customers access to a news server to access
Usenet. You'll need to use a newsreader like Outlook Express or Forte Agent
or Free Agent (google it) or others. I do not have a web page, so another
option is I could e-mail them to you if you wanted.

OK, go ahead and email them. Thanks.

Nice cosmetic restoration. From where I sit, you have a new quarter,
some floor issues, black crappola shot under the car after the paint,
the wrong power steering pump bracket, possibly a different driver
door, and did you check the buck tag for a match? If those valve covers
have curved ridges on the side they are factory. That engine has to
come out big time.

I suspect the passenger side quarter panel. Is that the one you are
referring to? I haven't noticed floor issues, but I've not went over every
inch. Where do you suspect? Undercoating is definately there. Possibly
hiding some sheet metal or fiberglass work? The valve covers do have curved
ridges. Which one is the buck tag? Yep, the engine and engine compartment
need refreshing bad! That's the weakest area of the car.

No, I'm looking at the seam in a7_3.

9a_3 looks like there there is metal with a cut edge.

Common tactic. I'd pull the seats and carpet to investigate from above.
Also, the weight of the undercoat would cancel the benefit of
lightweight engine parts. Time to get the torch and scraper. And
goggles. The tank looks a tad bashed, too. Gotta pull that before you
fire the torch.

No cooties then.
>Which one is the buck tag?
The one behind the passenger headlight. The proper power steering pump
bracket pulls it in close to the engine. That's a truck unit on there,
or maybe an a/c model.

Let's hope the undercoat isn't hiding a bunch of rust. Nothing like
dropping the hammer on the clutch and having the subframe pull through
the floor. Seriously, you have to off the undercoat before you can mess
with this car. I don't envy you.
