Ok...yesterday was shot (promised Wife I would do something with her and kids if weather was good, as they are off from school...we went to Philly Zoo). I spent today at the shop, and busted out the majority of part removal. Engine/trans are on the floor, lots of stuff went in the parts washer today. Have to go to a family dinner party, but:

Tonight, I PROMISE, I'll respond to every email that's stacked up in my inbox.

Tomorrow Im going to the shop specifically to make photos and clean/organize parts. Lots of parts have been sold already sight unseen, which I have to say Thanks to everyone that is so trusting of me. hahah Some people have even sent me paypal payments without even contacting me yet. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

Yeah, I think I can dig those out of the wash tank for ya. They are just normal stock bolts, not anything ARP or FP specific.

Good deal on that FMIC. Same core I have on my car and I paid that much just for the core new.

BTW, what's the story on this car? Why is it being parted? Seems it was a fairly well known rig. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

This is the story of this car:
1193508293_LqW3J-L.jpg


The frame is rotted out in some bad places: the front crossmember that has the 2 north/south bars and the front engine mount wasn't even attached to the body. Once I unbolted the rear ends of the North/South braces...that crossmember was hanging from the engine as the sides were just rotted out of the frame. The front steering rack subframe connection points are also completely rotted out, when I went to unbolt the subframe from the body, the studs just tore out of the floor. It was rotted bad enough that all the brake and fuel lines are gone in chunks too.

Typical NY state Galant that was driven in snow/salt every winter for 2 decades and parked outside. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif It looks decent on the top from 10 ft away and looks great in pictures online. When you see it in person and see the bottom of the car, anyone can see the unibody is wasted.

Not to mention it's a 197k mile old car that's worth, at best, $3500 running & driving. It's got $7500-$8500 worth of parts on it. Makes no sense to keep it together /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif The original owner (ATC250R) was going to either body swap it or part it out himself, but got "life-sidetracked" and it's sat for a couple years untouched. The car was destined for the crusher either way.

AGX still available...pics tomorrow, they are in the parts washer tonight.

I noticed today that the car has manual seatbelts with a complete set of what looks to be correct interior plastic trim and headliner!! Im a little scared to take it apart, but this should be pretty valuable as a complete set.
 

Are the rear dog legs for sale? If so il take them. NM, didn't see them listed on your site.

I haven't really gotten to updating the website for all the stock parts yet. The doglegs are both available still, Iv been super busy just pulling the aftermarket stuff first.
