So I have decided to do a complete rebuild of 97 #305. Por15 and replace all new bushings and everything in between.
when I got her
- pulling the LS swap
as she sat for a while
then cleaned the garage some and installed some shop lights

anxious to see more!
I took the interior apart and I am going to clean it up a little.
I plan on grinding down the old cage stumps and also deleted the crap alarm install. She is going to get a fresh coat of CW and also an autopower race roll bar
pics of her interior currently
I also took the rear bumper, tail lights, and center piece off to see how it was since she was repaired in the rear back in 2000
I cleaned her up a little and also ground down some surface rust. I do plan on sanding the rear back down and covering her in por15 and also reapinting her CW!!

all of this was done in the past 9 months or so
That Por-15 is good. Used some on my car close to ten years ago and still hold up good.
looking good
the things i would do for a 97R..
when i hear "JDM" i think about 1998 and FF SQUAD. the originators
BABIES "R" US crew
I didn't know those models came with abs. Good work man
yea they have the 98-01 abs compared to the non R 97 models.
I also have some parts off of this car that will be for sale. I will be adding it to my FS thread I currently have

thanks guys!!!
I hope to have more up this weekend!!
I spent the day prepping and por15 the front fender wells
here is the first coat
then the final coat and finished product.
I also put some por15 on the front lower radiator core support
when it all dries, I will put a top coat in the fender wells to protect it :boobies:
I also took the pedal assemblies apart and cleaned and prepped them for por15 as well since this is a known part to get rust.
the final product
I also did the abs bracket
finish product

Kudos for the in depth build. Do these not come with the c5?
they do come with a c5 but mine has had a rough life and didn't come with the original motor or trans. It had an LS swap in it.
Amazing restoration. how on earth do you remember what goes where when your putting her back together???
