I also need to source the bolts that attatch the down pipe to the engine I bought bolts for $50ish but they attach the down pipe the the cat and the cat to and the etc etc but not the main first connection, so that’s next lol
You mean the studs in the rotor housings? I may have some of those kicking around as well.
Ready to go baby! Picked up like 10-12 hour drive away, from Tennessee all the way back to Indiana Figured I’d drop all these pics because I’ve been a little stuck on doing nothing on the build for a minute and I want at least more frequent updates. P/O clearly had plans Another P/O pic from the listing Look at that handsome fella he’s so happy 😁 Morning after the loooong drive back it’s in the driveway Interior is freakin’ MINT!!!* It has back seats! (I’ve been told they’re not a common option, I believe it, it took almost 2 years waiting for the right sales post to come along.) Way better than those bins I’d never use, plus the kiddos can ride back here on trips to grandmas A photo the following evening

Got to work with brother in law trying to get it to run, we MMO’d the rotors on all seals With decent compression sounds, and poured some oil and gasoline in a 5 gallon jug and shook to mix, then filled the tank, wired up a fuel cutoff/ fuel pump on switch so that it would work, he started! Not for long but he’s coughing and smoking out the neighborhood! We put in new injectors and he went home, I went to work the next morning and the engine fire incident happened. Now it’s time to repair.
Had to add a second post apparently there’s a max limit for photos and/or length so here’s the last one Anyway the engine isn’t blown so at least we knew that the thing wasn’t a waste of money
I bought it sight unseen with no title, but we made sure it wasn’t stolen before buying it

Rear seats are semi rare. I’ve had 3 different sets. My current FC is a base and didn’t even have bins. It has backseats now. No seatbelts though. The hardware is harder to find than the seats themselves.
You’ve got a good start. You planning to keep the auto?
