Well just wanted to do a thread hopefully I can have this done before x-mas... Base engine is a 2.2 t but being that I do cylinder head and turbo charger fab and high performance engine coating's I am sure I can get some extra power out of this esp. since I am not far from Jerry woods and German precision machine is now located at our old shop I am gonna take full advantage of my resources... Just went and picked this up today a little grimey but it ran before it got pulled.. I plan on taking full advantage of the current group buys and will probably end up using the elepahant racing oil cooling lines..

Pretty standard rust damage you got there. I'd pick up a reproduction rear floor pan and just use the sections that are rusted out if you want to take some acceptable shortcuts. Installing a full rear pan takes a long time, so it's not a project to be undertaken lightly, but the payoff is some peace of mind knowing that you've eliminated a lot of surface rust.
The rust on the vertical walls is the kind of stuff that I just make my own panels for. No complicated bends, so it's just trim & patch. Not worth the expense of buying formed pieces. Check under your pedal cluster for rust as well. And what's up with the area where the seat belt reel attaches? |
