I picked up this guy just over two weeks ago for less than a grand. its a 1991 GL 5 speed with a/c and power steering. It had 135K when i bought it. I've put 2200 miles on it since then.
I built a rally-ish festiva a couple of years ago and it was a blast. This time I'm going to build another but with out all the chopping and cutting I did to the other.
Then theres the engine swap. I'm outing the b3 and installing a BP as well as keeping the A/C. The engine is scheduled to go in this March. The suspension work probably May. I'll probably be putting the later ford ranger headlights in too. They may be a Megasquirt, EDIS and a supercharger install in the future too, but this is not the only project that I have on the table.
There will be -NO- firewall bashing either.
On to the pictures!
HA. You can see where I hit a KIA a week ago. Look for the crack in the grille.
I put a cover over the driver's seat so that I would not ruin it.
I have a EGT console for it that will be installed soon. the EGT domelight is done.
I'm aware that I'll loose a little power with this manifold. I'll be throwing a supercharger at it most likely anyway.
and the new power plant.
there are several more at the photobucket site.
