Starting a restoration on a 1973 3.0 CS purchased at the beginning of summer. The car has bounced around the forum for a few years and ended up in Minnesota before arriving in UT. Thanks to @Markos for putting me in touch with the seller. I drove the car all summer and the engine ran really strong. After hitting 90mph on I80 with the windows down ripping out the headliner and getting blinded with 50 years of rust and dirt I realized it was probably time to start the process. Currently painted Baikal she was originally Ceylon so considering going back to original color or possible Taiga which is my favorite. Trailered her to Seattle a couple of weeks ago and with a lot of very experienced help took her apart. There's rust in the usual places but nothing that can't be fixed. Going for 3.5 with megasquirt and hopefully turn her into a beast that will rival my car last one that's sitting in the garage or @ItsFred. Thanks to Jake Messer, @bimbill ,@BMW Pete and especially @Sven for all the help hard work and guidance so far.
Here are pics of the tear down, I'll try and keep posting as the progress continues.
