Yesterday I took delivery of Jalpa #370, thereby beginning my Jalpa ownership experience.
Known projects that I will be fixing very soon--
1. Fix the headlights: the previous owner had to fiddle with the switches to make them come on-- about 10 to 15 switch flips, but they did eventually come on, and then proceeded to go off in the middle of the drive in the evening.
2. Fix the exterior rear view mirrors -they seem like they are both beyond loose and ready to fall off
3. Sort through the battery drain issue-- previous owner claims its the bazillion watt stereo system that is in the car
4. Complete Brake and Fuel system checks prior to additional driving
5. I am taking feedback on other critical things to check on the car. Please provide comments, as I am new to Jalpa-land.
It was a snowy day when I took delivery of the car, so the specs in the picture are snowflakes falling. I had shoveled the street and driveway twice to clear the snow, but I still had some traction events getting up the driveway.
