It's been sitting on Craigslist for a long time now. I'd probably only offer $500, fix it up so it runs and then make my car a project car.

Let me know what you think and if it is even worth it. Thanks!

Just noticed this when I was looking at that alternator, are those hood pins on a stock hood?

Yeah....sadly there are...
but I don't feel like covering up the wholes in the hood so I'm going to buy a better looking set of hood pins.
It's not in my interest to get them cause it looks dumb on a stock hood, but I'll have to.




Anyway, here are all the pictures and descriptions about today!


Around 10:30 am, they finally meet each other.



Got it jacked up and now it's sitting on house stands that I got from my neighbor. The rims are just under there in case it falls.
At this point I took the side skirts off and the wheel well plastics, along with some of the front lights.




I started disassembling during the day today and a bit some more tonight.
Here's the finished product for today, pictures are pretty self explanatory.
I'm taking the glass off the highs because they need to be drained and resealed!



Also, I mocked up the fenders, bumpers, and lights on the front of my car. The red radiator support is not staying on there.
I'm cutting off the white one and having it welded onto my car. I can't waitttt!



Got a aftermarket muffler, and I think it looks sickk


It also had a aftermarket air intake sitting in the trunk, just needs a little cleaning. (it goes for $100 brand new!)


I'll keep updates coming everyday that I work on it!
