Hey everyone,
I made an account a little while ago and figured it was time to post something.
I have been in the DSM world for around 6 years now and have owned only 1G's. I had the oppertunity to buy a GVR4 shell. Since they're awesome, I bought it. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
This is the beaut I picked up back in September of this year:
And then began the cleaning...
Loosing the A/C, ABS, and starting on the 4WS:
All together
Engine bay love:
ABS eliminated
And then began the exterior.
I decided to keep with the Nile Black.
I had a '92 AWD auto Talon as a DD, which I was considering selling to pick up one with a nasty body for the donor. I could't find anything that looked like it would be suitable in the time I had, so I had to kill the DD. I thought it would be pretty neat to make the Galant automatic, TCU controlled and all anyway. The neutral/park safety switch works, Power/ECO switch works, gas pedal, kick pannel fuse box, etc. Everything is like it was factory, which was my goal.
Now onto the shell swap... (and the GoPro)
Building the automatic wiring harness:
A little bit of fun later:
First bath!
All buttoned up
Now I just need some sexy wheels to finish the exterior.
