GVR4 I bought approx 2.5 years ago

So I bought this car maybe 2.5 years ago & slowly put it back together. The car was missing the front windshield, motor, tranny, ecu & bunch of odds & ends. Fast forward 2.5 years later, the car has been up & running for about 6 mths now. The fresh stock motor has ~4k miles on it, a/c works but has a leak in the line somewhere, 4ws still intact & it's still missing a few little pieces. No rust, the driver's seat has seen better days as well as the top of the rear seats. The board member I bought it from had it parked for about 3 years & the guy he got it from also had it parked for about 3 years too. So all in all it's been parked for close to 9 consecutive years. The driveshaft was out so we trailered it home on a two wheel dolly.

It feels good bringing it back to life. It's bone stock & in pretty good condition for a car that sat for the last 9 years.

EDIT: I found a picture of the day we towed it home

I'm jealous of no rust Florida cars. White still shines on me though. Most of my friend's cars are white...white rsx, white subbie, white corolla, white wrx. *sighs*

the galant definitely looks clean

Really? When I got my car it had been sitting for 5 years and it was completely covered in rust on the inside... And the gas smelled so horrid.
