Well I guess this got lost but here we go again
Picked this up last saturday for 1000 bucks, ran when I got it... well not right when I got it but the power steering pump was without a belt and the high pressure hose was leaking. At the sellers house the car wouldn't start but once I got it home I threw in a new battery and it fired right up. Anyway pictures

When I first got it

The ****ty sagging front springs

All stripped out an no where to go

It's been stripped quite a bit more since that picture but I broke my camera lens taking the middle picture so no good pics until I replace that.
oh and more pics here

PoorMan'sR · 03-03-2009, 02:44 PM

DsmRob · 03-03-2009, 07:29 PM

Looks clean, more pics!

phate1229 · 03-04-2009, 01:17 AM

clean... not under, well for a car that's been sitting outside it's entire life it's not bad, the only real rust is in the rear under it, but it's really bad there, some of the spots like the spare wheel well the doors and the roof were still shiny from the factory. If everything goes well (it won't) the engine is coming out tomorrow. As for the plans, st205 drivetrain and either a track or rally car, haven't really decided yet.

phate1229 · 04-15-2009, 12:24 PM

Well it's been a while and not much work has gotten done school laziness and lack of money has gotten in the way.
