Woot! It's about time this thing is getting worked on. For as long as I've known you it has been just a pile of parts. haha

Hmm why not just use that other AWD spyder you got. It looked like it needed nothing.

Salaved car
Awd swap was not the greatest
Drivers qt. Panel was fixed and full of bondo and paint was falling off
It was just a parts car any way all I wanted was the black top for my car
My car has a lot less miles and no rust on it
Dash harness was cut up.

also took out all the abs wiring out of the engine bay harness and put it back in the car. Also did a mini tuck with it. I used the 3 holes that were in the frame rail and make 3 brackets to bolt the fuse box in the wheel wheel.

I drilled out the spot welds on the stock lower radiator brackets and made some new ones and welded them in so I could use my 1g fludine radiator in the car

worked on fixing the new top since arms were broken and bushing were missing. the install on the frame was messed up. took a few hours to get it to work like it should now it folds down and up just great now.
replaced the floating arms with the ones that were in my top frame. also had to redo the elstac straps so it would pull the arm back when the top folds down.

also got the front bumper cut and put on for the first fitment. I have part of a 2gb eclipse front bumper so I can fill the gaps so I can run the 2gb eclipse head lights
