My name is Logan, Im 24 and a tattooer at Stay True Tattoos in Sharpsburg, GA. Im fresh to this industry. I apprenticed for one year and that ended in November of 2012. So, about four months out of the apprenticeship.
A little taste of my Tattooing style: I did this at my first guest spot down in Tifton, Ga at Tattoo Addiction.
On to my car. I just recently took ownership of a 1991 Galant VR4 #1027/2000 with around 174k on the clock. I traded (1) GT2860rs with Tial exhaust housing, (1) Miata 6 speed trans and (1) Miata Misumoto radiator for her. I maybe had $1200 into those parts and they sat around for a few years, so I feel like it was a pretty fair deal. 3 parts and no cash exchange for a whole car with title. She is rough around the edges but will clean up nicely.
I'm new to Mitsubishi products. My plan for this build is to take her back to as close to stock as I can get with minor upgrades and bolt on(s) only after all the preventative maintenance is taken care of. I took ownership of her with a toasted trans, so I have yet to drive her. I recently ordered a replacement trans from a importer in Canada, round $650 shipped with around 40k miles on it. Upon removing the upper timing cover to take a peak at what is there, it would appear that everything on the front side has been replaced already. WIN!!! It comes at a price though, the belt has a nice groove carved into it from the longer oil pan bolt being in the wrong spot.
I will most be lurking and reaming more often than posting for now, but Im happy to be here. Happy with my purchase and excited about getting this baby back on the road. Thanks for looking.

, I really like the stance of your car. Man I can't wait to get the evo8 struts and swift lowering springs I got for mine on 
No other vehicle has had me captivated as much as my GVR4 has. Despite not having the opportunity to drive her, I am still in love with this car. I at least spend a few minutes everyday just to sit in the drivers seat just to spend a little time with her.
