Just an update.
I added some photos of the water pump mods to the last post. If you happen to have a sharp eye you will note the alt bracket is in front of the ps bracket. Too bad the water pump pulley will not fit on like that. So i had to remove the ps bracket and grind the water pump a bit so the alt bracket would fit. It's not very pretty but it worked out fine.
Got a driver's seat via the junkyard. Only slight mods need to fit. Installed the rad and filled it up with water. Then noticed a large puddle forming under the engine. turned out it was just a loose hose clamp. Started fine but started leaking again. Tightened another hose clamp. Leaked in a new spot. After a bit I was able to tighten up every single dang hose clamp there was, because they were all loose, even the ones i didn't mess with. No more leaks.
As the 300 came with no fuses and no fuse panel cover, we just tossed the few we had in. After playing around a bit, we got everything to work but the horn.
The right taillight had a few holes knocked in it. As luck would have it all the pieces were still inside. A little super glue and clear packing tape made them whole once more.
One more trip to the junkyard for the horn and all should be well enough pass a saftey inspection. :beer:
