dang, that thing is gonna need some work... good luck! make sure you dont kill any animals living in there...
 
you gotta post a picture when you are done with it
 
13 years? wow, that's crazy. Have you ever opened the hood or moved the car in that time?
 
nope its been sitting there untouched for those 13 years until my aunt gave me the car as a christmas gift this year......


the only reason it wasnt sold off was the sentimental value it held with my late uncle...so since me and my brother are the only car guys in the family i got the keys and title and a new toy to have fun with :D
 
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck with that mess!!

I think some DP engine degreaser will work fine, just spray it on and hose it off like it was nothing.

I think thats gonna be atleast a day long project if your gonna clean that thing up.
 
Wowwww so dirty. Have fun with your project and post pics of the progress :)
 
Just call Justin. Knowing him he would probably knock it out in a ridiculously short time. Although this one is quite a challenge. It might take him a full hour instead of just a half hour. :p

:iagree: just don't close your eyes other wise you will miss the whole thing :D

Seriously though, that is one dirty car. It's going to take some time to get that car cleaned up. Should be fun though and we love :Picture:
 
I use to have a 78 Firebird. It was a little cleaner under the hood to say the least.
 
It doesnt look like it will be THAT hard to clean up, its just a lot of pine needles and dust. Once you clean those pine needles up, do it again, and again, my bonneville was parked under a tree for 3 years and i am still finding pine needles!
