    but seriously, arent you gonna do a proper body work?
    Proper body work will come later I'm taking a welding class this summer and then we'll be fixing the majority of the rust. I know Heist is doing it right! I'm following his thread religiously.

    Thanks, that was kinda the point.

    Also we weren't the ones who let it get in this bad of shape. This poor car has had a rough history. It's been completely rewired three times now, been in about 10 accident been left out on the street most of it's life. I feel bad for it but at the same time I don't really care.

    As I said I've got new kyb shocks coming as of march 1st.

    Today had one objective..... slam

    The job was done in about 2 hours













    Still needs to come down in the front. Fenders need to be rolled and the back wheels need to be pushed out about 5-10mm but after that it's good to go,

    Recently my photobucket was down and I couldn't update but we made a spoiler for the car. It's pretty solid considering it's made of cardboard. But our next goal is to try and make a actual one out of fiberglass.

    I also changed the spark plugs, oil, and kind of un-caked the rear wheels as they were barely spinning.

    We're also starting on a roof rack, made out of conduit and a pallet. That'll probably be done sometime in the next month, I'm back in school and don't really have much time to work on it.

    Right now it needs the spark plugs regapped. It's misfiring like a mofo. Anyway here are some pics.

    My neighbor had at 1600 growing up. I recall him saying the OEM (round) tail lights were impossible to find when he was searching for a replacement... You may want to consider swapping them out for something less valuable and see what they'll fetch?

    I don't know much about the market value for these things though.

    Cool build!
