Hi guys! New member from the Philippines and I recently just got my hands on this 84 Galant GL which came with a 5-speed stock. Will be rebuilding it into trackable street car and hopefully you guys could help out. Will post progress pics as well in another topic, also help would be awesome
Just some info about the car:
- Picked it up 3 months ago as a non-runner. (It was really cheap and it was just beside my house and our neighbor owned it lol.)
- Paint is in really bad condition since the car was abandoned for 2 years. The clear coat is peeling off already.
- Lots of rust as well, will be doing that next.
- Shocks are dead, will be replacing with a coilover conversion.
- Rubber needs to be replaced, some water gets inside when it's raining.
- Interior is bad but I don't mind since I will be stripping it out and getting a cage for it in the future.
- Only the driver side and rear passenger windows work, the power window motors are shot. (Don't know how to fix yet)
- Right side mirror doesn't work so I can't see that side clearly.
- So far, the only thing I've done is fix up the engine so it runs smooth as well as complete electrical rewiring.
- It still drives okay except for the huge play which will hopefully be removed by getting a rack and pinion conversion.
- Well it has a nice headunit and A/C is still cold, so i've got that going for me, which is nice.
Here's a picture of it, sorry it has that hipstagram filter on it trololo.
Thanks!
