Back in late September a few friends and I picked up an 89 Cutlass Ciera with the 2.8 in itcheap that we are planning to run in the 24 hours of LeMons an endurance race series for sub $500 cars.
Here are some pics of it when we first brought it home



Got to love how rain makes a car look nice and shiny
The things we knew we need to when we purchased it was a new battery and that the exhaust had a whole in it. On the way home we found out that it had a power steering leak and the one driving decided to floor it at a light and he disconnected the cat from the rest of the exhaust system.
The exhaust we didn't care much about since in the rules its safety and we were probably going to get rid of the cat and replace it anyway.
So after getting a battery and some power steering fluid we found the leak

As it sprayed power steering fluid all over my driveway.
We also believed we discovered why the cat disconnected itself.
