Problems:

1-Parasitic drain- I use a battery kill switch to avoid dealing with the problem

Needs a new paint jo, had a Maaco quick spray in 2017 and some minor body work done but needs a new quality job.

3-Death wobble and steering wheel play (I have a new Panhard Rod on hand)

4-Door locks and ignition locks are all different.

5-Oil leaks- yes, this proves it's a 110...

Right front speaker wire needs to be moved, may be shorting out

Rear door card MUD UK, could be cut better

Some front/middle door hinges are different styles

Some tinted window bubbling

3 dash switches (all new) don't sit in dash correctly where it is warped or bent.

Carpet install could be better

Occasional strange noises from engine- engine has had 0 problems though

Speedo gauge is always off by at least 5, around 70mph it's off by 7.

Rear defrost isn't hooked up with NTO rear door
