The int. actualy looks a lot better in person than the pics & the wheels are the result of about twelve hours of refinishing. My buddies where ranking me quite bad over them before.

Looks good. The only time rust "isn't very bad" is when it's on someone else car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) That rusted out area behind the drivers seat is usually worse on the right side. Check it out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png)

That's a great car for all the twisty roads you've got out there. Enjoy!

I must first get my Galant vr4 out of Jsb status. Then trust me, she won't see the road again for at least a year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) Attached Image

Hey, in another thread you wrote:

Ok, got mine figured out & fixed. The starter solenoid just wants more amps than are making from the bat to the ignition & back to the starter.

I had removed & cleaned all my grounds, all of them! Hiding all over the damn place (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Checked for voltage drop to the ignition switch & back at the solenoid. The solenoid from time to time wants more amps than that circuit will give it for size & length.

So I added a relay. Put it right next to the starter. About six inches of heavy gauge wire from the main starter bat+ lug & again back to the solenoid. ran the ground to the solenoid mounting screw & energize it with the original solenoid wire.

It has cranked over much better at all times now & happy to report Zero no-crank issues.

Took far longer to diag than to repair.

To sum up. if you have a random no-crank pull the solenoid wire & see if it will light up a good test light. if it will then add a relay & call it fixed. If not you have my sympathy, it's not a fun circuit to trace.

Upside I learned how to rebuild my underhood relay block. now my voltage always stays above 12. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Exactly how did you wire that relay/solenoid/starter? Sounds different than the way mine is setup. I'll send you a PM.
