Hello from Wisco
This all started when I found a 92 colt in Milwaukee car wasn't very clean and a few of the windows are broke out.. BUT the motor was blown and the guy was going to take $150. Got to Milwaukee (3 hour drive from LaCrosse) and the guy who I was going to buy it from flaked.
We were in Milwaukee eating dinner and a friend tagged me in an add on dsm classifieds Facebook group.
It was 8 pm contacted the owner and was going to drive to Cincinnati Ohio. Another 6 hours but he needed to apply for a new tittle.
So headed back home and waited.
Tuesday the 30th after I got done with school at 2pm we left for Ohio.
Got there at about 1:30 am (they are 1 hour ahead)
Loaded up the car and headed home
1142 Mile round trip.. took about 19 1/2 hours.
Car is now home... have not gotten a chance to work on it.
But I did stop at a friends and pick up a bunch of goodies...
4g63 bare head
1g rear subframe/mustache bar
And some suspension components
The manfiold off of Buschur Racings Evo 8 Drag Evo -- This was the FIRST Evo in the 8's this manifold was used.
I know it was originally built for an EVO BUT I got it for a good deal.
Family friends of Buschur.. My Dad was sponsored for a while when he owned The Buschur Racing Magnum.
Pic of it on a DSM
The plan:
Planning on keeping this as a sleeper.. manifold I have is going to be an issue with that though we will see
Its mostly going to be a street car at this point.. With some Autox/ice racing. Few local 300' drag races to..
AWD swap
Manual trans - if i go manual it will be air shifted
Possibly going auto...
Not sure on the bottom half yet... trying to decide what I want to do..
leaning towards going 4g64 with a 63 crank and reving it to the moon. IF I do it WILL be an auto
I hope to have this car VERY light. Dont need the torque a 2.3L stroker has...
Turbo will depend on auto/manual.. motor build
Open to ideas
Stay tuned for updates this will be my winter project.
Going to buy a mig welder soon and a few other tools...
Once it gets cold the colts coming in..
Inside my House............ LOL
