Ok,
New tires mounted. Should be getting inspected here soon. Work is sending me out of state for a few days so I will be on the road sometime after that with her!

Not sure about the red wheels just yet...

Ok, small dilemma...

Car failed Inspection. Both Rockers have rust at rear.




Rear Trailing arm bushings 3/4 ripped.
Rear drum's are a bit squishy. I recently swapped the front to SS break lines, not sure if thats why the rear feel squishy but whatever. I found a rear disc swap I will be getting here soon, as well as new TA Bushings.

Rear Bumper Support/Reinforcement rusted out, all 4 12mm bolts rusted into the car and not connected to support. I found a used one at a yard for 75.00 hoping to pick that up this weekend!

Then Welding shop quote of 250 for rockers and rear rust repair, I should be about done...

Oh, and a minor exhaust leak.

I haven't forgot about you guys, just waiting on this money tree in the back yard to produce more dollars!

I like the red wheels actually. Looking good.

I'm a little jelly bout how clean it looks overall, making me want to do some body work of my own.

Hey guys,

Since my trailing arm bushings were shot 3/4's of the way I decided to go with rear disc's since I had to pull the whole trailing arm.

So i found a swap from a 93 Del Sol on the ol' Craigslist. Complete with Ebrake lines and calipers.

I ordered new wheel bearings but when I pulled off the dust cover, the original bolts still had the factory paint marker on it.
I decided to hold off on wheel bearings and just add extended wheel lugs.

I just dropped my old rear trailing arms, and removed all bolts holding the cables into place around the gas tank.

Dont mind the rust on the rear, I plan on getting that welded and sprayed. Picked up a new bumper support that I have to clean up and refinish before attaching to bumper cover.


Now the fun part. Im a little unsure how to go about this part of the install.

Any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated!!
