RonnieJ Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Ever since ive wanted a StarQuest I wanted a white widebody. I settled for a red Quest a few years ago because thats all I could find at the time. Even though I bought the red rust bucket I have constantly had my eye out for a whitey. They have popped up in various areas in the US and price was way too much for the condition or it was coming from an area that has lots of rusty Quests. After lots of patience I found a perfect candidate here in AZ. The car is dirty as hell since its been sitting with cracked windows since 2009/2010. Other than the dirt, faded paint, and unknown condition of the engine its a great point for me to build what I really want. I guess patience does pay off The plan is to pull the engine, pull the interior, clean, paint what needs to be painted, then build one awesome car from all the good parts of both cars. Its not going to happen overnight and since the red one runs amazing im in no rush to cut corners. Anyway im sure you all dont really care about this nonsense and would rather see pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creakyjoints Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 (edited) Love white cars with 2 tone interiors. Of course dust and red isnt the best combo! No rust and straight is great!

dmyers151 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Holy f*** that interior is filthy. Looks like someone emptied a vacuum cleaner bag into it through a leaf blower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonnieJ Posted October 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Who knows how long the windows have been open and how many dust storms its been through. We get some crazy ones here in Phoenix. Will def need lots of elbow grease but more concerned with the lack or rust. http://greenbirdingmendo.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/haboob_eating_phoenix.jpg?w=523&h=394 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
