'Simple Green' that engine bay!
So what was the whole story behind the car? Looks like fire damage? And did you use a new front clip or just refinish the old one..?
Sweet deal, enjoy the ride!

Re: Brought back from the dead before and after pictures, Finally Finnished!!! (itr#xxxxlives)
I bought the car at a salvage auction and I was informed that the car was put on fire on purpose. As for parts I searched around and made a deal with vecspeed for his front end. Got all the power steering parts from junk yards and I was set.
the whole thing has cost me about 10g's. A little more then what I thought it would cost me before I bought the car. It runs excellent, love the car to death.

That's what I would of guessed when I first saw the pics, but then I notice the interior was still there. Almost seems like the person was was caught or just stopped in the middle of the act. Losers.
BTW, that's a nice price for that car even if it has a salvaged title.

Put that wing back on, that's all she needs for the full restoration. No use being "stealth" w/ no wing when you drive a banana on wheels.

wow you actually paid for power steering parts? people here pay to remove them, hehe nice recovery nevertheless
the wingless look looks much better without a rear wiper though, hell even the wing look looks better without the rear wiper
Good luck on finding the wing, there's plenty up for sale, wait a few months for a decent price at worst, but you will find one!
