Hood, bumper, and front valence off. The hood needs longer struts so it opens further. Front bumper has some light rust and rubber damage. Later models had aluminum bumpers.... hmmm. Headlight surround and grill are plastic, missing some chrome, and have some damage. Also one headlight bucket is missing a adjuster screw. Engine oil was thin and smelled of gas.
Fuel tanks. Yes, tankS. The main 24 gallon tank drains into a 1/2 gallon sump tank. The sender is in the main, the pickup is in the sump. I've heard rust nighmares on theses, but mine suffer mainly from battery acid damage. The main has been repaired with epoxy before. My pre filter on the pickup had come apart. There's apparently a larger replacement available.
Fuel tanks out. You can just see the ECU on the right. SO far not much rust in the trunk, but some battery acid damage. I'll have to install the new battery in a sealed plastic container vented outside the trunk.
