My new project car

[Turf1600]

I'm going to try and see if i can transform this into a car my wife will like. If not, it will be my toy and she'll keep her audi. I picked her up from schnell3er and drove it back to houston from chicago. 19 hours total - the car didn't even flinch. 220k on the body - 90k on the motor and 30 on the t belt. Everything works.

Plans:

Plastics
Upgraded stereo
Tint
Maintenance
repaint valence and mirrors
get a new fender
repaint weaves
Late model rear valence
plate filler

I picker her up for $1500.

How bad is the rust?

[Turf1600]

No rust. No leaks. We had the car up on a lift up in chicago and the underside is cleeeaaannnn.....................................

It may need new control arms, ect soon - but the boots aren't torn on any of the ball joints.

looks like a good project and list but i personally wouldnt tint the windows. each to their own

Yeah, it's pretty easy to say than in kirkland WA. It's not for looks - it's to keep from getting sunburned and sweaty in rush hour traffic. My wife is a redhead she burns during a full moon.
