313/1000 Build Thread - New to the GalantVR4.org Family

[Chim55117]

Hey guys, I'm dc_style and sixsixtwo's little brother. I'm currently 16, and I am in the process of paying dc_style off for 313/1000, which used to be kevbo6204's VR-4. Plans are just to fix the body damage right now, and pay off the car. But anyhow, I thought it would be nice to introduce myself. For the Minnesota guys, I guess this means I'll be the youngest guy at the meet this year? I expect I have a lot to learn from you older guys on the forum!

Build/Repair Progress:

3/16/09
Went to the junkyard and found some nice condition 89' headlights to replace the ones damaged in the accident, picked up a pair of corner lights as well, and the piece that goes directly above the bumper.

3/20/09
The water pump broke and the accessory belt snapped. I have to have the water pump replaced in order to drive it. Painted a USDM grille from the garage to replace the broken grille currently on the car. Painted it by prepping it with 1000 grit sandpaper and denatured alcohol and then 2 coats of Duplicolor Primer Sealer, 3 coats Duplicolor gloss black enamel, and 1 coat Duplicolor clear coat.
