        Yesterday and today we got a lot done on the car. We fixed and patched all of the rust on the rear, welded up the rest of the rear clip, and even got dirty with some fiber glass stuff. I cut out the passenger side fender and fit the turbo flare to it. Experienced my first time welding which wasn't bad at all not perfect but the welds were strong. I got the pedal box out which had a huge hole in it, while i was taking it out i also found holes in the driver side frame rail. Oliver cleaned up all of the welds and also made patches for holes in the rear of the car.

        still cutting out rust from the car and patching them, there is getting to be less and less holes now. oliver got the frame rail patched up and looking good also starting in welding up the driver side floor last night. He also go to bonding and molding both rear turbo flares. I got to disconnecting the wiring harness, with labeling and taking pictures of everything. The wiring harness looks really bad is some places along with the old wiring, anyone buy a brand new harness that fits with the 02?

        while that was out of the way i got to cut out more rust, and grinded down the fiberglass from the rear flares. got to draining all of the fluids in the car and took the radiator out.


        Lots of pictures
































        Not bad for a rookie.

          little update. good news, we found a trunk (junkyard) and a fender (2002 FAQ) all we need is a driver side door! with the other fender we got stripped fit, bonded, and fiber glassed both turbo flares to the fenders. Got more rust patches fixed, and got some bondo on the car. thats it for now.

                            Today we spent all day sanding. We got the backs of the fenders fiber glassed, they aren't going anywhere! Fit the passenger side fender on and started to line the body up. I especially liked this step because it looked like a car for a second. While we had all the lines straight we bondo'ed, blocked, and repeated a bunch of times untill we got what we wanted. Fitted the trunk on and slapped bondo on that and called it a day.

                                Its been awhile since we have had an update, but we finally got some work done on the 02 today. With Oliver having the flu and me having midterms we haven't gotten a day to work on it for weeks. We FINALLY FOUND A DOOR! it was so hard getting one in decent enough shape to work with. It had a couple of dents and some rust but wasn't bad overall. We got to stripping the door then bolted it up and fit all of the pieces together on the driver side. Undercoated the inside of the fenders and put everything on the car to line panels up, which took a very long time. Got the bumper in, that will go on soon enough!
