Thanks again to Rob @ Octane for his hard work, Eric @ Teknotik for sourcing most of the parts, and of course Angela at TD Canada Trust for making all this possible. Lol.
The history of this car wasn't well documented when I bought it, so at the expense of any future resale value, I'll do my best to be forthcoming with regards to what I know about the car so far. My hope is that whoever this car is sold to in the future will not get any surprises, and can take it home with eyes wide open.
Sooo, just to keep a record for when I'm in my golden years, here's a log of the repairs/upgrades so far (although at that point I'll probably be too concerned with making the 3:00pm dinner buffet before the scalloped potatoes get cleared out). In no particular order:
-front upper right control arm
-right compliance pivot
-O2 sensors
-SOS LMA kit
-Pride headers
-tail lights (leaking)
-battery
-numerous gaskets
-silicone coolant hoses
-front engine bushing
-spark plugs
-coil packs (3 and counting)*
-frame straightening (may need some refinement)
-'02 front end conversion
-alternator
Still needed:
-washer fluid pump
-Window regulator kit
-creak in the door
-door gaskets
-passenger side view mirror crazy glued??? Will not fold
-trunk is misaligned and won't lock without brute force
-ALL lid struts
-complete audio system (ok, the right door works but is in its death throes)
-proper paint job or re-vinyl
-proper exhaust (Remus it came with was apparently rotten)
-proper rims
-proper interior
-CTSC? (I hear it's the bee's knees)
I'm POSITIVE I've forgotten some big stuff but I've been in a corner for the last 1/2 hr ducking my boss, so I have to run. More to follow.
