Well Tonight i purchased Greasemonkeys non running dsm. Needs a bit of work but im sure i can turn this into the cleanest 1g in the United Arab Emerates.
Thanks Stephan for the great deal, i look forward to making her hum again.
Never thought i would see the day when i would be back with another DSM, let alone a 1g. But im excited for what lies ahead.
Couple things on the to do list:
- Fix the rod cap issue and replace the rod bearings.
- Clean up interior, put back in the rear seat, replace carpet with brand new stuff.
- Replace Windshield
- Fix the fenders.
- Repaint dark gunmetal
- Injectors and Link
- clean up engine bay more.
Eh theres lots more to do, but i love doing it.
Tom

Congrats, I suppose ;) And good luck with it. Make sure to put up a Wanted thread for whatever you need because there's a wealth of crap laying around everyones garages on here!

Rod cap issue, wtf? Sounds like motor-pulling time dude.

Better make this into a project thread quicklike!

We will see on saturday what we are looking at for damage. Ive been two years without a dsm so im ready to get my fingers dirty with the permadirt.
Im hoping that the bearings saved the crank from any damage. but wont know anything until i pull the pan. Regardless its nice to have a truck in case i need to make a trip to MAP 4 or 5 times....

Congrats! Welcome to the wonderful world of 1g's. Sure they won't get you laid, but everyone knows they're faster. ;)

Get some pics up!

Ah that was smart. 2g's are the real lady killers. (Internet doesn't relay sarcasm very well).
