First I want to thank the 6G gods for providing this thread as it makes me feel special and also makes me feel good to show what ive done to my car haha =p

Well being that I am very excited to have my car finally I am very happy to be able to start a thread, although this build will be slow due to school bills and such but I am doing my best trying to get parts here and there when I can.

To start I got the car for $750USD; it needed an alternator and tune up so that took some money away from some things I wanted to get off the bat. So far I have mainly done visual modifications and performance in between =)

Things I plan to do:
-fix rust
-re paint
-new wheels 15" GT
-tint windows
-led gauges
-new muffler
-new head unit with speakers
-replace hoses. lines, and parts as needed
-lower (maybe)
-rebuild+turbo


More to come =)

yeah it's still winter. Give you engine bay a wash with some engine degreaser and it'll do wonders!

It's obvious that the previous owner hated cleaning!
Well done. I'm going to clean the interior of my celi too, as I have most of the interior parts dismantled now because of another project
I'd recommend to impregnate the plastic parts of the interior. They will shine like new. I use cockpit spray from Turtle for this purpose.

I use Fresh shine - cockpit spray from Turtle. Like this: cockpit spray Not the strawberry one though

just paint it all like i did

No but armorall will clean it up nice for a bit.
I cant tell from the pics, but if there are a bunch of scratches in the plastic parts of the interior, the best way to get rid of them is just to paint them. pretty easy, and you can even repaint black if you wanted.

that paint in the valve cover is great stuff, i have seen one technique on utube that u can spray water on ur piece whit a little sprayer, and let the little drip of water dry up completely , so its make real water drip in your paint
