The salt air does wonders to alloys, leaves a nice white powdery coating on them. I was thinking media blasting and then clear coating some of the other parts on the car at some point in time.

On a brighter note, I opened the glove box for the first time and discovered an owners manual and all the original literature from when new. Bonus surprise!

Ooh, installed new engine mounts - nice progress from June 25 to July 23rd, Bill. At this rate, you'll have that roller up and running in 20 years (30 tops)!

Just giving you a hard time, Bill. I had a pair of wastegate actuators sitting on my workbench for a year that I never got around to installing - ended up taking it to my mechanic. So, I can't say too much!
