WL:89 Colt E(economy)

[Beans]

Well since I finally got the laser how I want it I finally got one of my dream cars. I have been trying to find a clean, rust free colt for a while now and after about a year I finally found the right one! My plans for this car are to rebuild my built motor and throw it in along with an built auto and convert the car to awd. The car will be a full interior car with a 6pt certified cage thats alredy in it and the windows will be getting tinted so you cant see the cage. The body will stay as stock as possible and will be getting steelies all around with drag radials, so my goal is to have a decent sleeper. Work on the awd swap will start as soon as I can find a 4bolt rear end, drive shaft, trans, and transfer case. While Im waiting the car will be getting wire tucked and all the wiring that was done for the swap already will also be getting cleaned up. With me actually having a job this school year this car should be getting done alot faster than the laser which will be a nice plus!! So far I have just stripped the interior for the rewire and awd swap.
On to pics:

andrews old car!

[onedayjake]

Is this the one that blew the trans apart and the clutch went flying past them?:lol: This should be pretty badass when its done. I always wanted to turbo my Summit and its's already awd.

[¿umop apisdn]

This will be the coolest ****ing car if it works out.

[regal403]

Why did that dumb ***** un-build this car?

[C.J.]

so this was redrums car? why did he get rid of it after he built it???

[regal403]

Why did that dumb ***** un-build this car?

[Beans]

yes it was andrews old car and Im not sure on why he did. I bought it from a guy who bought it from him. All I know is andrew could floor it in first and second and it would never build any boost so I bet he didnt want to change setups or fix the car and just got rid of it but I dont know.

[93DEESEM]

Finally some pics of this baby! I like! I've got your stand whenever you want it just let me know.

[Yngvar]

should have just thrown spray at it

[Beans]

Badass, you are doing exactly what I always thought redrum would do!

[Jeffo]

i love it

[Nick]

It looks fast already!

[spoonraker]

Wow that's actually redrum's old car? He spent so much time and money getting that thing running and it got torn down and sold in how long? Sad...but at least the new owner has big plans for it as well.

[csx353]

i love this car!!! how exactly are you going to covert it to awd im dumb incase its easy

[Hillbilly]

Can someone please tell me what the **** we are looking at here? It looks like a chevette with a rollbar. Also it looks as fast as I would at track and field day.

[Kelvin]

dodge colt

[Hillbilly]

I get that, now why are we looking at it again?

[Kelvin]

its was a 1 ton 500hp car. now it will probly be the same way with a new owner.

[Hillbilly]

I guess thats cool. Who am I to say light and High powered is bad. Carry on.

[C.J.]

how hard is it to put the rear subframe in there to support a rearend?

[Beans]

thanks guys and work will be put off for a while my daily needs a new head but work will resume as soon as its done. And the rear subframe mounts will be easy with just steel tubing going across the frame but the fronts Im not sure yet but ill figure it out.

AWD isn't the least bit impressive, unless youre going in the snow and mud. I don't see the point, sure youre gonna probably outlaunch some negro's LS1 at a stoplight every time. But big whoop, my camry can do that. Save yourself the time and money.

It would be completely pointless to go rear wheel drive that would cost way to much money, be way to difficult and would completely kill my sleeper look driving around with slicks in the back :ohnoes:.And the car will get decent 60fts with awd or at least decent enough for me.

[Nick]

RWD would be pretty bad ass tho.

axis spins ftw. Beans you better give me a ride this winter.

[supercrackerbox]

Okay, I have a stupid question that has absolutely nothing to do with the plans or final outcome of the car.


Brake booster/maser cylinder on the passenger side of the car- How does that work? Is there some sort of pivot rod behind the dash to actuate it?

[Grey03GT]

How much stuff that andrew fabbed up actually came with this car? The Dual Fuel pump assembly? Or did he completely strip it before originally selling it.

It came with nothing andrew fabbed up. The wiring for the 4g63 was done by him but Im redoing it all.

[flawlessTSI]

You have to be secretive to keep the edge in all the big money street races in Lincoln.

I seen you in Seward today. Around 1:20. By Meyer Ford.

[supercrackerbox]

Yeah, I got to town early to pick up some restoration parts from S&P for a car that I'll likely never actually do anything with.

[¿umop apisdn]

Is jimmy still working out of the back of the service master?

[supercrackerbox]

That I do not know. Becky (of S&P) was gone today, some old lady from the Oreck store helped me.

[¿umop apisdn]

Yeah, it's right next to Sun Mart?

[srt-4_uk]

S&P is gone at the end of the month :cry:

[BOORAH]

I wish I could buy some of the stuff :(

[supercrackerbox]

Yeah, it's right next to Sun Mart?

See when I was growing up, it was a Hinky Dinky. That was before Pac 'N Save came to town.

S&P is gone at the end of the month :cry:

What? Why? SAY IT AIN'T SO!! Those guys hook me up! I really don't wanna get butt****ed by Performance Dodge. 90% of the time those guys can't even find what I'm looking for. The parts I bought today for instance- I bought the same parts 3 years ago for the Charger. Performance and most of the Turbo Mopar community think they are NS1- as in long discontinued.

[supercrackerbox]

Hell, who has some money to invest? Done properly, you could make a decent profit on eBay . . .

[BOORAH]

Is $14 enough?

[srt-4_uk]

Becky and Jimmy really are the greatest.

[Grey03GT]

So why are they shutting down?

[srt-4_uk]

not high enough profit/headache ratio

[supercrackerbox]

Is $14 enough?

$67 a side, two sides, estimated 180 each in stock. You do the math.


Price is based on S&P pricing btw.

[¿umop apisdn]

Yeah, I remember Hinky Dinky.
