I recently purchased a 91 Galant VR4, #515. It is basically a rolling shell the engine is missing and front-end is removed.
A little about my background, I have been a car junkie for more than 30 years now. I have owned too many cars to count. Some of the notable ones: 55 Belair 2 door post (my 1st car), 73 Firebird, 79 Toyota Supra, 87 Conquest TSI, 91 Galant VR4 and a 92 Talon TSI. My current cars include a 2002 Lexus 300IS, 2000 Audi TT and an 86 MR2. This is my second 91 Galant VR4. My previous one I owned for about 3 years 10 years ago. I sold it after my 92 Talon TSI project car was done. I sold the Talon about 3years ago when I purchased a 2000 Audi TT. When I bought the TT I thought I was done with project cars. Much to my wife’s dismay that lasted a few months when I came across an 86 MR2 which I have spent the last 2 years building it now has a 20 valve silver top engine and is completely done. This time I made it five months without a project car until I came across this Galant VR4 that needed to be saved.
I’m kind of an old fart when it comes to forms like this please bear with me and I will try not to be an annoyance. I won’t be asking how to change the oil or pull the engine. I will be browsing the site looking for technical details and parts. When building my MR2 I found the wonderful world on online forms, man what I would have given for information like this back in the day. I live 20 minutes north of Salt Lake City Utah and would welcome contact with any local owners. I have spent the last couple of nights reviewing the newbie pages and browsing the forum and I like what I have seen. My plans are to restore my Glant VR4 to its original unmolested glory with only minor performance mods (no 20” wheels or aftermarket body kits etc.). Thanks in advance for all of your hard work in building and maintaining an outstanding form.
