Hey! Still alive. Started working on it today... :blush: hahahaha the other two cars drove out.. mine had to be pushed.

Where I'm at- Need to finish installing the pedal support (which is a huge pita for real). My dad had installed it wrong to get it down into our basement garage. I was just about to finish up installing the steering column when I realized what he had done. FML. So I had to undo everything I had just put back in and take the pedal support back out. Yeah. I need to get the master cylinder out before I can get it out. At this point I'm just sick of looking at pedals. So cramped under there keep and I keep getting the grease from the steering wheel shaft in my hair etc. FUCK.






( the side with the bolt sticking out (towards the driver) needs to be tucked up under the dash. Needs to go above the lip instead of under it)

So hopefully I can finish all of that tomorrow and be done with that.

On the buy list:

Tires for my rims. (they are early 2000 bullet style rims)

Like those.

WEATHERSTRIPPING. Lol. If it rained on my car I'd be screwed.

An air cleaner -.- having trouble finding one I like.

Then I would like to convert my front drums to disc and paint the entire car flat black (temporarily?)

That's basically all I intend to do before I can start driving it this summer.... knock on wood.

Good stuff man. Are you planning to just restore, or slightly modify it a bit? Upgrading a few things but keeping the classic look is always a plus... like maybe a new rearend and some bucket seats?

There are a butt load of the same year/coupe/options as my car. I really see no point in keeping it stock/correct

These are the rims btw! I'm going to test fit them tomorrow

I meant like.. no body kit or other stuff like painting the tail lights black, etc...
I just like the classic looks, like the body lines and stuff. I've seen a few that were complete train wrecks on the inside, but looked pretty good from the outside :)
The rims look boss.

The rims hit my control arms... Shit. Ordered 4 1" spacers off egay. Should be here tomorrow and I'll post pics of my secksy new ride.

Depending on the spacers/rim fit I'll be ordering some 245/55 tires nom nom and it'll be one step closer to drivable.
