And time for another update.
Noticed for a couple of month a slight coolant smell sometimes, but nothing in the floor of the garage, nothing on the engine oil, but i could smell it from time to time, but could not find the leak . Put the coolant system on pressure, and nothing. No pressure drop. Could not figure it out .
Since i had some free time, decided to remove the interior, and look what i found...
There it is my coolant leak. The heater core said enough is enough after 23 years. Since i had the colossal work of removing all the interior and dash, decide to perform some modifications that were in the back of my mind for several months (more on that later).
War zone
And parts everywhere!

The offending part
And the replacement
And during assembly decided to remove the seat spacers. Massive difference. You seat way lower than before.
Starting to come along
The steering wheel went to refurbishment in the meantime, and turned out exactly like i wanted it!

Yes they did. I supplied a door card so they could get a proper suede that would match it and the seats !
