[QUOTE="VikingTrad3r, post: 274760, member: 2229"] this car needs an enema In order to lift the car up on my max jaxx two post lift (i love this thing, its cheap and easy and perfect for those of us with normal garage heights, i roll around in an old office chair under the car) i have to get the antenna down. im removing it. pulled the driver rear wheel and wheel well. wow there was at least 4 lbs of dirt and grit right here: [IMG]https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.corvetteforum.com-vbulletin/2000x1504/image_d479c05325a43123654f6c8864bcf1e0082aaf98.jpg[/IMG] So i vacuumed it all out, but then you know, while you are in there, you may as well pressure washer it all. Planning on keeping this car (i view it as the penultimate early car....except my 89 missed the quick steering ratio...)i can rectify this) and turning it into a street legal track day / time trials car with most likely a sbc superram and eventually an Lq9 swap if that blows up. Anyway, my plan for the morning is to get this antenna out, jack it up, and pressure wash it. That will make working on it much nicer. A trick i used on some nasty c4 undercarriages is to spray down with “citrol” let soak, use the old bed sheets under the car, and blast away. The water seeps through the bed sheets while the grime, oil schmegma, and grittyness gets caut in the sheet. i then drape the sheet over my fence and clean it off to be used again for same purpose. So....i started out just removing the antenna, which turned into cleaning the undercarriage. That will make dropping the trans nicer. Im getting older and my ability to put up crap falling in my eyes is getting narrowed. Id rather just clean it and add an extra day! [/QUOTE]
