SpEeD147 Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 My '84 Starion with Technica trim. My dad got into a few accidents with it, as you can tell. but other than the body damage its got only a few problems. It runs and drives, but it hasnt been used in quite a long time, definitely not to its full power :wink: it has all stock parts. I need to take a few more pics of the body, but for now this is what i have. http://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/bodymini/mini-HPIM0031.jpghttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/bodymini/mini-HPIM0032.jpghttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/bodymini/mini-HPIM0037.jpghttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/bodymini/mini-HPIM0038.jpghttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/bodymini/mini-HPIM0039.jpghttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/bodymini/mini-HPIM0042.jpghttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/bodymini/mini-HPIM0047.jpghttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/bodymini/mini-HPIM0043.jpghttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/bodymini/mini-HPIM0222.JPGhttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/bodymini/mini-HPIM0224.JPGhttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/bodymini/mini-HPIM0223.JPGhttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/idlepicsmini/mini-HPIM0302.JPGhttp://sales2.cjlei.com/cars/conquest/mini/idlepicsmini/mini-HPIM0284.JPG I think this is one of the coolest stock dashboards that starquests have to offer stuff: -Throttle body was leaking, fixed that.-In the process of fixing the leak, somehow clogged an injector.-Unclogged the injector but the car idles at about 2000rpm-knocking noise up front while driving, probably suspension-Right side headlight motor broken, but i have the replacement.-headlights go up, but not down (wt....) possibly passing control relay-A/C belt broke off, need a new one-Alot of rust.-The front of the right fender is destroyed, have a new one handy-Need a new bumper, this one is bent up and kinda deformed, along with the panel above it (is that a valance panel or header panel? or are they the same thing?)-Both quarter panels have a decent amount of rust, also have 2 new ones handy. First, its fixing the high idle problem, then the headlights, then the body with a nice paint job. Once it's running pretty solid, it's performance time Doesn't look like this will be too tough, any suggestions would be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elkidmino Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Don't let the rust discourage you, these cars are totally worth it. But i love the flattys, and i love the original decals. Your car is completely salvagable!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technology Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 That is a sweet car man! Fix 'er up nice and don't get discouraged. It will rock and roll when you're done. Does it have a limited slop diff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MontyTSI Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 no lsd, if it doesnt have ABS it doesnt have LSD. I cant see over to where the ABS can would be but there is no T on the booster line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpEeD147 Posted June 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 Body work! got new OEM quarter panels from mitsu (last 2 of like 3 left in the whole world supposedly) got the old ones cut off, and these new ones them welded on by some body shop guys. They actually did a decent job. check it out: Looks alot better compared to the ones above ^^ http://www.26liter.us/gallery/albums/userpics/10259/mini-HPIM0512.jpghttp://www.26liter.us/gallery/albums/userpics/10259/mini-HPIM0511.jpghttp://www.26liter.us/gallery/albums/userpics/10259/mini-HPIM0510.jpg No more rust! Next objective is to sand down the whole car, primer, then paint. All problems with the car are fixed, and it runs like a champ. Engine bay is alot cleaner too, pics of that later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
