Noice. Bought a '94 about seven years ago and just about to sell it. It ran a bit rough but I added a couple cups of Seafoam when there was about five litres of fuel left and went for a blast and then it was smooth as silk. A quick MAF sensor clean helped too. Just put in new front shocks, no dramas and lower ball joints, some drama. Had the knuckle out and used a press tool without luck so soaked them in 50/50 acetone/ATF then smacked them with the back of an axe, easy. Then realised I didn't have the press tool on properly. Didn't know much about cars and the old man knew it all but didn't teach me anything so I learnt most of it from Chrisfix. Unlike the old man he never said get out of fkn way.

Wd40 was the best I found after a cypress tree sapped a car heavily. After It was parked under the trees for 3-4 months. Also a good trick for faded tail lenses... put red globes in both sides. It helps matching them nicely. Nothing worse than one side bright red & other lens more like white 🤣

Nice work dude - may be just another nothing-special Falcon, but it's satisfying to see it go from scrap to something worth owning and driving. For removing tint - grab yourself a little handheld garment steamer from Kmart or whatever - like $30 and the heat + steam makes it come off super easy, night and day difference.
