505plus5 Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Thank you all for the kind words. Yes I picked it up for $1300. I had no idea that this was worth as much as it is. It will stay as close to stock as possible other than drop it and tint it. Gonna start buying all the parts to get it running. Im a bit confused on the whole fan/fan clutch assembly? The plastic fan is broken im not sure where or what to buy? Any help or links is appreciated. Eric Goooooooooooooooooooooooool! That is awesome, bro! Congrats!!! :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
greengoon Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Absolutely amazing deal! I lower everything but I would keep this one as stock as possible and I'd only do modifications that are easily reversible. Simply lowered with stock rims would be awesome and you'd have no regrets if you ever wanted to get it back to factory stock. Good luck with the project! 1 Quote Link to comment

Draker Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Get that bumper back in asap! Looks incredible! You're giving jrock a run for his money on DOTY. Amazing... Pics of water pump/fan. I'm looking for a fan myself. Quote Link to comment

Evaded Posted March 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Really want to buy some wheels but all the deals are on 15x7 with 0 offset. Could I use them with a 8mm spacer on stock 510 suspension in front? Will they clear with the spacer front and rear? Eric Quote Link to comment

TENDRIL Posted March 19, 2015 Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 Electric is simple, make sure you relay it and get a thermo switch for about 180-190 Quote Link to comment
