Hello everyone!
I have been lurking this site for 2-3 mounths now and wanted to say hi.
The car is a 1989 colt, nothing special,that I have converted to AWD from a 1991 talon.
Tha motor/harness/comp is out of a Galant (n/a 4G63).
I built this car for Rally America class OPEN LIGHT. That class has no turbo but a lighter min wieght (2600, compered to 2900).
The biggest differance to this car and all the other awd convertion cars is that I used the entier rear pan out of the talon .
This let me use the stock talon gas tank!!! It is moved forward 1.5 in and raised the same but I could use the ground clearance and didn't have to use a fuel cell. Just had to cut the fuel fill out of the lower drivers side and weld it on the top of the pass side ,weld together the two fill hoses and a long fill return and there you go!!
Here are some vids of the car on its second outing when I got all the bugs out of the wiring, but the header gasket blow becuse the front bolt came out.

All the ones on that site with Todd in the title are me....
I will be checking back and updating this with some more pics later...
And I will start by saying sorry I dont have but some finish pics of the build becuse I just moved and lost the camera in that elusive last box!!
