Re: Newbie

Makes a person wish a car could talk and tell us what happened to it. Once you get her tore down you will see what you have. Looks like a great start to me. I build a car once from two 5 gal buckets. One full of dents, the other full of rust.

Re: Newbie

Yes sir indeed... that's a great project to photograph as you work on it so you can remind yourself what you started with... There is a real sense of satisfaction bring a car back to life to "prowl" the streets again... There isn't a question that you can't ask on this forum that you will not get an answer to... Look forward to seeing your progress shots!

Re: Newbie

Welcome... I have a question? Why was the car left to waste away for 3 years. I just don't understand people building somthing and then just letting it go down like that.

Re: Newbie

Really don't know why someone would let this vehicle just fall by the way side for three years. Must be faith that now this car belongs to me and I will bring her back to life!

As far as the drive train is concern. When I get the body off and pull everything out and apart. It will give me a better idea on where I need to concentrate my immediate efforts. But I do have a spare drive train pretty much ready for a swap.

Just attended the current SEMA show and some of the parts catalogs are starting to come in the mail. Can you say Window shopping for parts and other go fast parts.
