Finally had an opportunity to finish cleaning up the front grilles.  Boy, what a challenge it was getting the horsecollar trim back on and the horsecollar back into the opening!!

 

 

At right is a photo of the "cleaned up" engine compartment. Not quite as nice as it looked 5 years ago, but considerably better than it looked last week! I'm hoping to get some paint to touch up the block and a correct top radiator hose to get things looking a bit more period! I'll post more photos soon!

A few photos of the Pacer taken right after its first bath in about 3 years. Lots of dust and lots of dirt, but the paint shines again! I was particularly happy with how the dash cleaned up- that's the original paint. Just a bit of Dawn dishwashing liquid and some Meguiars Cleaner Wax really go a long way on a dirty dash!
