Yeah, whoever owned it before you must've been pretty ignorant.

Haha, that's an understatement. They crashed it into a curb at 50mph destroying everything on the front right corner. The tires that came on it were bought used from a junkyard. And there was tobacco chew spit on the inside of the windshield and passenger window. It was missing a sideskirt and neither door closes correctly.
It's been a hell of a beater though, and I wouldn't trade or sell it for anything. It's a goddamn tank.

Nice SRT4, but keep in mind I need to replace my winter beater. I want it to be something fun but I don't want to get Minnesota road salt on someones mint street machine.
My summer cars will be a stock Miata and lightly modded Evo.

Update on the Colt: New fuel pump and AFPR are in the car. Next is better IC piping, motor mounts, and VPC.

Unfortunately the water pump just let go though, so we'll see how quick this thing gets up and running. I may skip dynoing the 11b and toss the 16g on while I'm doing the water pump/timing belt BS.

Project shitbox goes E85 finally.

The car got hard IC piping, metal intake pipe, 550cc injectors and VPC/GCC combo.

It's now ready for crazy 11b dyno numbers on October 3rd, then it'll probably get a 16G and a real tune before the cruise.

It also needs a blow off valve, since the factory unit is just plain obnoxious, especially with the instant spooling 11b.
