OK Hi, from Oklahoma city

I'm not really new here but figured I should go through the protocol since it's been about a decade since I've been active on here.

I have a 93 montego blue touring 7.
I got a manual transmission from a guy in Texas out of a 94.
Been working on this build foreeeeeever. Would love some input or ideas on where to go with it. It's been sitting in my friend's garage for the past few years so don't mind the dust.

Absolutely love FD's I have an FB myself and it's my first RX. I've been conflicted on my own build here, I am a huge fan of resto-mod, but also a huge fan of doing whatever your heart desires! That is a beautiful color, so personally I would say try to stick to that OEM color code, I like a little body kit, as long as it doesn't conflict the body lines of the original beauty. As far as upgrades, any and every car can be transformed with suspension, breaks and a good set of tires. Add some extra HP to that and you'll have a canyon carving monster! Good luck, looking forward to the build!

I'm torn with this build because I haven't dedicated enough time to it and now I have changed my lifestyle. The non car lifestyle. I am working in Vietnam and I am thinking about parting this out.

I was wondering what would be the first things to go and for how much.

Don't know if this should go in here in my introduction or where.

How hard would it be to return to stock condition but with a manual transmission? Honestly in that shape it's worth a lot more. And if that is beyond your time or budget I do have a truck in Dallas and friend with a trailer. I'm slowly 👀 for my own FD.

I too am in Oklahoma City, If your thinking of parting out then I may be interested in some parts. I saw you over on craigslist. I sent an email regarding the passenger headlight cover.

Hope to hear back.

Well I tossed all the rats nest, sold the stock twin turbos, and tossed the gas tank, so it would be pretty hard. I do have the front bumper but it's not painted.
