  Hats off to anyone who can say they built there car without having to tap the budget.

Rancheronut, where in Montana are you?  Spent six years there myself.  Sure do miss it.


i'm where the wind never stops, it just changes speed.(great falls)
 i have three cars that i'm building as parts come along and buying wrecked cars/truck and parting them out to make extra money and NOT using my pay checks.

. this factory orange 1983 capri is completely been done  to show our young kids how you can do it with used/traded/elbo grease.
 



i sold a complete 1994 black interior from fire wall to trunk floor just to use the money for 1986 front and rear bumpers for this car.



 the other car is casper my 1982 cougarxr7


personal, i have more respect for some one that can scouring junkards parts and resells parts. than just pulling out a check book and pay  for it done! because thats how we did in the 60's/70's/ 80's where there was no aftermarket world/internet/ hired car building shops.
i have been in car clubs/car projects/car shows  for the past 35+years.
i also have been three ways in my life, from living pay check to pay check, to have more money than knowing what to do with , having nice income every month . using your brain to get parts or how to work on you own project is the only way to go! there nothing worst than going up to some one and asking about there ride and being told idon't know i got this car this way!:disappoin

as for;
"What on this page has to do with Masons Lincoln"?
:repost: :dunno: :laughing: :toilet:
remember it easier to fix them, than to find them after they been crushed.

V6 = juvenile delinquency!

OK
so I put the 3G in the new car. Hooked A to A, I to I, and the black and orange up... No good, car dieing while driving. Amp light was coming on past 2k rpms. Only difference between the 88 and the 90 is the 90 has TWO yellow wires in the I spot on the plug from the old V/R.. So I hooked them both up to the I on the alternator. Im at a loss. Hooked the 4ga cable to a 130amp mega fuse, and to the right post on the starter soliniod like I did in the 88. I did forget to unhook the battery at first and the black w/orange stripe wire hit and sparked on a bracket. Did I fry something? Gonna check the fuse incase I broke it during install, and I broke the tab holding the S wire in, but its hooked up.
So what could it be? Once again the colors dont match the colors on the harness I got, and now theres 2 yellow wires.... And Im suppose to hook up the black wire right?

Yea and yeaturday after I got a letter from the dmv saying that I am gonna get my registration suspended because i didnt inspect it yet. So I go to get a inspection. Im on a side street as a truck is pulling in the street. So i pull out. The carbehind him crosses the yellow lines to pass the back of the truck and slams into the back of my car. Hit right after the drivers door, dented almost all the way up the the quarter window, I think it bent my rim, and pen 15ed the rear end because it vibrates from a stop now. I dont know the extent of the damage because the car is at the inspection station so I can prove that I was on the way to get it inspected.
I fixed the brakes though, the drilled rotors and new pads make it stop great now! Didnt help me yesturday though.....
O yea get this the car that hit me
a little toyota corolla
it was my principle

rear brakes came apart 2 days before, fixed them. Drilled rotors all four courners and new pads
stops much better now, but doesnt drive good anymore

Sue em. Get insurance money for your car and buy a new one in better shape.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

It must be alot different up there, how do they know if you did or not? Here in pa. you can register a car and never inspect it.
As long as its on private property, and not sitting on the street. Now insurance is another thing.

everything is in the computer
inspection station sends info right to state when they inspect a car
It sucks I was on the way to get the inspection so id be ok when I got hit
so I have a document saying that date so I can prove I was trying to fix it before the accident so I dont get screwed out of insurance money.
Idk if they are gonna fix it or total it
State deemed the car worth 2,150 and I wont take a penny less
