Typhoon finally has LIFE again!

[gooche26]

Its been a LONG process after 5 years, but my Typhoon is "running" again. Its funny how time flies. Since I've last had her running I got married and had two kids.

Got a friend help re-wire basically EVERYTHING due to rodents and we still have to chase down a break light that stays on and the driver side window. I'm please considering how long it sat. I need to get to the MVA to get her tagged again. With the weather around the mid 70's its nice to be back on "older" projects!

You should let us in on more of what you've done. I like the color, and its good to hear another ones on the road.

Re: Typhoon finally has LIFE again!

Thank you. Sorry for the bad cell phone pick. She is awful dirty. As soon as I clean her up a bit I'll take some more. I'm actually debating on going back to factory teal. I feel kinda bad taking an already rare vehicle and color and changing it. When I was younger I took the teal/gray and cheapy painted it to blue/gray (like my sig). Then I cheapied again to the all silver. All the cladding isn't even bolted on all the way. Test fitting.

To get her back up and running:
- Changed fluids (oil, tranny, fuel)
- New Fuel Pump
- New Wiring Harness
- New cap and wires
- New break pads
- New Idler and Pitman
- New A/C Compressor
- New Battery

Got some 17" Mille Miglia Spiders to put on her.

Yup that's my buddy's shop. He said he'd give her a place to rest and help me out in his spare time. Really good mechanic if you need anything done you can't handle.

He said a lot of people came in wanting to see if she were for sale.
