Well its been a bit since my last update and honestly I haven't really picked up any new DSMs in the past six to eight months. Not to say I haven't had the opportunity but as I get older (maybe smarter) I've started to be pickier on which ones I pull triggers on due to the market just not being...
#12) I actually picked this one up a while back but just haven't posted about it. This car has sort of meshed with me since day one of going to look at it. So far it's been the one DSM I have latched onto and wanted to keep and thus is still with me. It's in fantastic condition rust-wise...or...
#11) While sitting at home browsing through Facebook Marketplace a 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX showed up in my feed. It looked rough in the pictures but it was only 1400$. Quickly looking through the pictures I could see the whole drivetrain was still intact but the interior was mostly gutted...
Getting there:Let's cover non DSM related things first. So we sold our house and ended up buying a home with about 8 acres and a three-car garage. It needed lots of work but had lots of potential mainly from the perspective of having room to add a place for me to do car-related things. So...
Wasn't gone for long...So after the last car was sold I went through a purge. I had collected a decent amount of spare parts over the years and since I had decided to move on from DSMs I decided to sell off a lot of stuff I had acquired. Not only that but we had also decided to sell our house...
I quit...#8) Man, this next one hurts to talk about. Watching my son play Playstation one night a 1997 Eagle Talon TSi AWD popped up on my FB feed for 1400$. I sent the guy a message but the guy responded that he had a guy coming to look at the car the following day. There were hardly any...
There is a field when creating an FS post that lets you put location, I now see that even though I filled that out it doesn't really display that information anywhere. Thanks for the heads up, Ill update my ads with location information.
Getting Everyone (mostly) Up-To-Date:#5) Alright, let's do this. Shortly after the banana car I had a blue 1G (I believe it was a 92) AWD Talon pop up about 30 mins from my house. Drove over and traded a set of new BC camshafts I had purchased a couple of years earlier for the car. It was...
I no longer have a need to hoard/keep these on my shelves. This set is in good shape and has no issues with any part or piece. Gearbox shifts through and into all gears with no issues. Come with what you see in the pictures (speedo, bolts, accessories, etc.). Will NOT separate. Will NOT ship...

Catching Up:#1) So, to kick this off I figured I'd briefly talk about each of the cars I have picked up over the past few years. DSM fever hit me back in high school and my friends and I went through a handful before joining the military and getting married yada yada. Wish I had pictures from...
So, the last time I posted a build thread I stated I was stepping away from DSMs. Let's be real, no one actually ever gets away from DSMs, there is something special about these cars that just keeps us coming back. So, this time around I am starting a build thread that instead of covering a...
