Thanks for the comment SupraStorm1080! Although this is just a learning curve for me, and it's a way to prove my talents to anyone questioning my abilities.

I love people's train of thought... I don't fix cars for a living, therefore, I could not possibly know HOW to work on them...

AH, My hardtop just showed up at my shop this morning, I need to get to work on it, but there is SO much crap I have to do first.
Heidi and I finally sold our Vigor, and now it's time for us to rebuild our 93,000 mile 90...

 

[supra90turbo]

I didn't go to the garage with a ton of motivation, but I did manage to drill out the spot welds of the battery tray and remove that, and i didn't forget the camera!
New pics!
Most of them were blurry though... ARGH!! More to follow soon...

[Justin727]

[supra90turbo]

Had some hatch leaks, but you'd be surprised where rust hides, Justin.

Rust is like Chuck Norris. It never sleeps. It waits.
