Well I just got home. The trip took way longer then we though because we ran into a few bumps along the way. But I got her, and she's in the driveway! Definately has some rust that's for sure! Looks like this guy, or the one before, had a lot of shit rigged up. Some of the wires look not stock in the engine bay. I'm sure I'll be having fun troubleshooting this baby! I need some sleep though, I am beat!

nice. Yup I just got to get this thing in the garage and start cleaning up everything. Might take some time, but it's all good! One of the first things I'm going to do is rip all this emissions hosing out of there. It's a freaking cluster of hoses everywhere. Then decipher this wiring shit.

It's cold out, so I haven't gotten a whole lot done. What I have gotten done, is I figured out a bunch of his goofy wiring. I removed all the emissions and non-neccessary vacuum hoses because that was a complete mess. I found 2 spark plugs were crap (the annode and the cathode were touching) so i replaced all the plugs, it's looking like the timing is screwed up, so I will have to redo that. One of the spark plug wires is shot, so I'm looking for replacement wires for cheap right now. The throttlbody is pretty stick, and has a small piece broken off it, so I will be converting it to accept the spare 91-94 style Throttle Body I have laying here. I have the intake and charge piping all off, and I'm going to sandblack it all because it looks like absolute hell. I'm also awaiting CVD to do a couple things to his car, so I can use his ECU since my car doesn't have one.

Thats good you are finding issues at least, maybe the spark and timing issues alone will be enough to get it fired up.
