Sup. There hasn't been a ton of progress on my car, since I've mostly done engine work, trying to just get it operating normal.
I sorted out my suspension, I thought it was blown in front. But the previous owner did something wrong, and I ended up just putting the car down as far as it would go after messing with adjustments. (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/Ur5GK8f.jpg) (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/T2o8icP.jpg) Recently painted my vert wheels black. The previous owner painted them white, and they looked awful, the paint was terrible lol. (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/hKGsMnL.jpg) (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/7Sj2Txv.jpg) Here's the ugly side of my car. The dude before me had tape on the fender where the dent is... so I took that off and there is bare metal underneath! yay... oh well I need a new fender and front bumper anyways. (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/UQrzkCu.jpg) (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/32sMjJV.jpg) And I need new tires with a smaller sidewall (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/PTk4bfv.jpg) And I need spacers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/gasp.gif) The rears are all sunken. There's a lot of random ghetto stuff about this car lel, and I must fix it My car had a really bad flooding problem. It had a kill switch installed already, which would relieve all the fuel pressure to the engine to stop it from flooding, but even that didn't work if I left it sitting for long enough. So I thought for sure it was my injectors, and I could see gas pouring over the frontmost injector so I replaced the o-rings and it still happened. So I switched the rear one to the front, still happened. So I took my fuel rail off and gave it a closer look and realized there was a small crack, allowing fuel to drip over the injector. Currently I am waiting for two fuel rails to come. Should be here tomorrow. |

dat Merc looks very cool, did you do any fabrication work before? Nope! I've done engine work, mild paint&body, lots of suspension, etc. Just random drifto stuff lel. What's a reasonable price? Usually the only shells worth looking into sell for like $5k and are listed at $6 or $7k. Best deal I found was a silver touring model with red interior, running with manual for $7k I think? Low miles too but I passed because I didn't have time to deal replacing the seals (it had a slight water leak). Honestly tho if you like the FC that much just forget the FD. You can find some damn nice ones for the price of a bottom of the barrel FD. I would really like to get an FC first, so I can drive my own car. The FD would be a project. And exactly you can buy a nice FC or something else for the price of just a shell of an FD so. The FD I'd look for is a non running one owned by some oblivious dude who doesnt know s**t who wants to get rid of it for cheap. And I'm still up in the air about what I want. I have a few cars/trucks in mind. jelly/10 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif) Literally found this s**t on craigslist lol. Keep your eye out for something like this! The experience and knowledge & resume you gain from this is awesome. After this I'm looking to get a job working in a shop, building rad cars. Got back today. Some might be able to tell how much better the smoothing/paint removal looks now. And holy f**k it takes a long time to remove s**t that hasn't been touched for 60 f**kING YEARS.
