As you may know I recently picked up a 92 Colt Vista (http://www.4g61t.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=34233). Its an auto but also AWD so figured it was worth jumping on. Searched the yards for a few months and FINALLY scored the stuff I needed to convert it to manual.

I had acquired two AWD Talons a few months after purchasing the Vista. One was a complete running stock 93 (7-bolt) w/ a 4-bolt LSD rear and the other a wrecked 91 (6-bolt) w/ a 3-bolt rear. I was only initially interested in the 93 because I wanted to stay smog legal but the owner also offered me the 91 in a package deal. I decided that I didn't want to run the 7-bolt so decided to sell the 93 since it was a complete and great running car. Thankfully for me, the previous owner had gone through the entire motor on the 91 shortly before it was crashed so, after a few upgrades, it should be pretty much ready to go.

All that to say...Dan and I started stripping the 91 this past Sunday.

Round 1: Let the fun begin.

Looks like a cool project for sure, wish I was closer and I would help wrench on it.

I tried to convince him, not going to happen. It will be a much better daily driver as a stick though.

Only to get away though, not for good. There's no way that I could afford to live out there. :P

Is this the car I got to see? At least the red AWD Colt? Cuz that thing was SSSSIIIICCCCKKKK. One of the cleanest swaps I've ever seen. The 240 was dope as shit too.
