So I wanted to keep this thread for a couple of reasons, one, to keep up with my plans and whats happened with the car, because there needs to be an AutoX write-up, and because I have a crap load of questions. So....with-out further to do here we go.
About a month ago a co-worker of mine took another job in Alabama. He mentioned getting rid of his Talon because it wasn't feisable to move it about 300 miles, in his mind. I offered him $250.00 for it without seeing the car at all. Obviously I was kidding, but when he called me about two weeks ago and told me it had to go, I decided to go look at it.
I'll be honest, I didn't really want to get into DSM's. Ive heard they were ricey, unreliable, and deep money pits. Well obviously two out of three of those aren't true. I contacted my good friend, Corey..A.K.A. 360glitch...about going in with me and buying the car, splitting stuff 50/50 and whatnot, he said lets go look at it, so off we headed.
Now.. Prior to this I had done a bunch of research on DSM's but I still wasn't quite prepared for what I was dealing with, and probably never will be, but I know how to use a wrench and I love working on cars, so a new project has been born.
This was how she sat when we bought her about two months ago.
