    Axle joints: Check play; visual inspection of the dust bellows for signs of damage; check tightness of ball joints at the
    front axle and screw connections on the suspensions at the front and rear

    Exhaust system: Visual inspection for leaks and signs of damage, check mounts and heat shields
    Vacuum units for exhaust flaps: Check function

    make sure to check the antifreeze during winter months
    Safety belts: Check operation and condition

    Here are the final set of pictures after service was completed. Fully assembled she looked strange to me and that's probably because I'd gotten used to seeing her parts stripped off over the past week.

    This is one of the best threads I've seen in an automotive section on here. Nice work Jason.

    I have to admit there is so much more to this car than I ever imagined so I truly have a new appreciation for the GT and for it's owner, allowing all of those beautiful painted parts to sit on the ground. But I have to agree w/ Achenator, I'd be beyond stoked with the RS.

    Unreal Pics.
