The lack of rust should also be.. Hmm... no - I'd be upset to strip a car as good as your donors! There's an added appeal for me: turning something truly dreadful into something rather good! Welcome - this is a fascinating forum with lots of very helpful and knowledgeable contributors. I'm sure you will enjoy this project. |

Thanks for the welcome! Donor shipment has been delayed but I should be getting it next weekend now.
Curious about how the ordering process works (from Exomotive). When you guys filled out the online form for your chassy, did you all pay the deposit right away or did you get a message saying that exomotive would be in contact with you?
I did speak with Kevin prior to ordering so he is aware I was ordering one. Its been almost a week already.

I order mine 8/1 and got my invoice 8/15. Kevin called me and was shipping #62 that day and mine would be #98. The long wait begins

Greg, when do you plan on your tear down, I know someone who is looking for a shell in good condition. let me know. they are located in Indiana. John I can have it ready for him in a few days after I get it. Would be great to kick it out ASAP. |

Donor car finally showed up over the weekend.  Drove it this morning a bit to get familiar with the car and any potential issues before tear down. Other than the wiper and window motors being slow, the clutch grabs high and the glove box is broken, the only mechanical issue seems to be an on/off throttle stumble. Like the decel Enleanment is too high. Probably an issue with dried seals in the throttle body. Can't find any exhaust leaks which usually attribute to this behavior. Probably will start the tear down tonight. |

You are going to start tearing down already? I figure I have at least 2 more months and probably 3 before my kit is ready so I am just going to drive my car around and see if I can find all of its problems before I tear it apart. That way I will know what to fix when its apart. I just hope the timing belt holds out, I have no idea when, or if, it has been replaced.  |
