Ya the guy that owns that bird, screwed me over. Owed me quite a bit of money, so I repoed the truck and still have the bird.
 
Where do you go?

My dash lights stopped working my car didn't have a CD player after I put one it they no longer work any ideas?

Check relays.

Most up here go to Newport to drag, I drove 2-3 hours to center vile and did some passes in my old 4g
 
Ya it would be a lot closer for you to go to Prescott. Check out MidsouthRacers.com - Index has all the local tracks. There is a huge race in holly springs ms. this weekend. I want to try and go for Saturday qualifying, lots of low 4 second door slammers! If anybody wants to go and watch let me know

You did buy a plug in for it right? You know one you plug up to the factory harness to adapt it to a aftermarket cd player. If you didn't then thats where I'd start. I don't know how many times I've had to fix a problem like that. If not then check relays and fuses.
 
Body is clean but for the driver side fender. Has a small bend at the end. Should be able fix that.

Need to get a hoist soon. Ready to get the engine and transmission out and start ripping at the wires and moving the battery. Also doing away with all emissions.
 
I've gotta come down soon and see it Bobby! I'm excited just hearing about it!
 
So today's tinkering adventure got me to build a laptop mount for the talon. I am going to write up a tutorial this evening but so far everything has turned out perfect for what I need and didn't cost but about 30$. Everything is apart getting painted at the moment. What do you guys think?

That was one of the goals, even though I rarely ever carry anyone around in the car. I actually built a quick disconnect into one of the 90 degree couplers right where the plexiglass top mounts. It lets you pull a hitch pin (sort of like a cotter pin) and pop off the end which can be stashed behind the seat. It also seems quite sturdy which I was nervous about at first. I purchased some Pool and Spa hose to run over the piping to clean things up a little. This will also let me run my Link cable up the hose and keep it close the laptop USB inputs.
 
That's cool...

Hard part for me now is deciding on the actual build. How much I want to strip it. My plan is for it to be a fun weekend car and do some autocross.

Nice Bobby!! I got my engine out Friday night, The engine harness, clutch peddle, ECU, shifter assembly with cables, and my test pipe Saturday. All I have to get out now is the rear sub frame today and reinstall the sub frame from the Talon so I can still have a rolling chassis. On another note I bought a 14b turbo this past week from tuners and received it Friday night. To my surprise this thing is completely unusable in its current condition. I want to sell it to recoup some of my loss. I will be more honest than the previous seller and say it needs to be fully rebuilt( previous seller said it was just fine and had a few bent fins. When I inspected it the shaft play was so bad that is what caused the bent fins. Seller told me minimal shaft play to. Wrong!!!!). The housings are in great shape but the turbo isn't. After checking my turbo it is still in really good shape so I will just use it till I can afford a 16G. I'm asking 75 shipped for this thing. That is the lowest I can stand to lose on this thing. The turbo has every which way of shaft play. I payed $120 for it so I am taking a loss. I'll keep it before I just give it away. I even sent the seller a video of how bad the shaft play was and he still denies that there is anything wrong with it. F^*@#$& douche!!!!!! Anyways if anybody wants it just hit me up on here or text me. I think the majority of guys on here have my phone number.
