Fate brought me my '94 sedan and it has me smitten, I do believe it's turning me away from large old domestics to small old imports
I got it for a steal, have fixed most of it's problems, and have started doing all the fun things you get to do to a new car (on a budget). It makes me feel giddy, I don't think I've been this excited to tinker and think of neat things to do and interesting ways to fix its flaws (like rigging a hood prop rod in the trunk (for now) since a lift rod/spring is broken...) in quite some time. Also the new blank slate for goodies like stereo stuff and LED lights (LED freak here)... I'd imagine it's like getting a mistress younger than your wife
I also never thought I'd be so thrilled to 'upgrade' wheels on a car to 15" steelies and hubcaps, lol..., but those 14"s had to go, and those Impreza hubcaps are pretty sweet Baby steps!
I need to figure out how to get some pics up so I can show you things like the blue LED cluster lit up behind the narrow piece of steel with holes in it I fashioned up in the silly 1/2 DIN space you get with an aftermarket radio...
The exterior isn't much to look at, but it's whats inside (and how it runs) that matters most to me
BTW, I was thrilled to find this place (been lurking) and all the great info within, I've probably found 85% of all the juicy knowledge I've needed right here
