Well. Started to get some parts at the house so I figured I would get some work done. First I had to go over to my buddy's garage and redo the steering column wiring on his 69 dodge pickup. So once I got that done we pushed the eclipse back in.

I quickly started getting parts off the car. Took both fenders off, hood off, pulled carpet out. I hate seeing that this was a black car and had such a shitty paint job done on it.

I also wanted to get one thing done while I had nothing in the way. So I welded up the trans mount I got from Fejery4491..he was awesome enough to go out, cut off the one on his parts car and send it to me.

So I am gonna let that sit tonight. Than tomorrow I will run the new to me engine bay harness I got. And hopefully get the ecu in and floor pans cleaned up.

Not right now at this time. I do want to repaint it. But want to get it running and driving first. I work at a body shop so i have the tools and supplies to paint it. But when I do paint it, its gonna be down for a bit. Mainly cause we will be pulling all the windows out and doing it right.

As for right now. we are going to sand down the car and just shoot a quick sealer primer over it. The paint booth at work is tied up for the next couple months. So I gotta wait.

Thanks for the compliments guys. I only wish I could bring this car to a level of some of the builds I see on here. I envy some of the work you guys do.

But sadly, I still have a lot to learn on some things, so i do what I can. And when I hit a road block, i just get on here to look through the builds to get some more motivation.

Well..Got the engine and all the parts over to the garage tonight. Now hopefully I will have the energy to get some things together soon. I am probably gonna wait till this weekend to get parts on. But we will see.

Well..Finally got some time to work on the car a bit today. First off I assembled most of my intake. Still gotta find my throttle body. I know I had one lay with the rest of the parts, but all I can find is my 1g one.

I think it looks ok.

I also started running the engine bay wiring harness that I got. And I also received my head today. So now I should be starting to get alot done.
