And you found a Talon more rusty than mine was!

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
 

Yes I did did not look that bad till I took the skirts off and rust hit hit the drive way. When I jacked it up and put it on stand the first time the stands went through the floor lol.

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
 

Awesome update!

You just have way too many cool cars.

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
 

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

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
 

Very nice, I am excited to see how this progresses!

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
 

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

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
 

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.

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
 

been working on it the last 2 days. It is getting there.

got the fmic put on and started to put the a/c system back in the car
http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...006_123852.jpg
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.

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
 

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.

the arms that were in the car they were broken. the floating bow arms were gone

got the side skirts all on the car now

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
