Scott in Bellingham Posted March 1, 2006 Author Share Posted March 1, 2006 Scott, I must say "you're crazy man, and i like it." I cant wait to see that puppy glued back together. If you need any help all be free in April.... You'll probably be done by then, but if your not than the invatation is there. what are you willing to help with?, could use some custom bumpers maybe ,and some side slider bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott in Bellingham Posted August 19, 2006 Author Share Posted August 19, 2006 Any more progress? look what showed up see anything that looks familiar? got the Doner truck for the project, a guy at work picked it up for the tranny and didnt want the rest so it followed me home, removed the front sheetmetal and engine and what do we see? a diff that looks somewhat familiar , I will be removing the body , shortening the frame and be placing the running gear under the EA82 Wagon/Hatch , should solve a few machanical issues, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djkindt Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 see anything that looks familiar? yes... i see those wheels in your head cranking again. And as I look into my crystal ball, I see your eyes rolling into the back of your head as you attack that poor little truck with a sawzall... just like the great white shark attacking an innocent baby seal. You're right, this all looks too familiar!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratty2Austin Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Looks like a project I want to kinda sorta do.. only I am still driving the car I would be doing it to see you at the show right? I can tell you more about my idea later yes... EJ22 is the way to go.. forget that EA stuff carbs suck! besides.. with the EJ coilpack instead of a disty, think of all the trouble free water crossings! I should know.. I have tested it! (although timing belt bearings dont hold up after a few months from being dipped under iron silt water) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
