Big Sky Euro

So when I was in Spokane at the car auction I saw this little guy sitting in the way back with grass growing up around it, which only 101,000 on the odo. He was due to be in the "Heavy Metal" sale, which means they are not running.
I snagged him for $1000 and put all my "love" into him. By that I did the usual buying parts, waiting for parts, and swearing at it while trying so hard not to break anymore plastic clips.

Went from this....








Too this...

Wow!

Dood. Whoa.

Nice work, so what was wrong with it, not running?

Damn. i love that color. good job.

Well who ever had it bought a new key and didn't program it so that was the main reason why it didn't run.
But then I went through and did double platinum spark plugs, throttle body gasket, a couple new calipers, a couple rotors, some new cv axles, synthetic oil change, new windshield, swapped out the old wheels for some nice ones I had sitting around, new halo headlights and DRLs, new tail lights, plastidipped the grill and rear emblems. Swapped out some interior pieces to make it look good again. Oh and there was moss growing on it inside and outside haha. So I went through and detailed the interior and the engine bay to the best of my ability. It still has an exhaust leak and it could still use a new valve cover gasket, and this week I'm taking it to Spokane to get the ECU reflashed at Appleway because its coming up with an engine code: CAN Data Bus Software Malfunction. Wish I could take it to Seattle and have Achtuning give it an APR flash and an APR Cold air intake, but that's more money than I got.

Bring it to Leavenworth!

This little guy was sold to a Nicole Ashbury awhile back. Shes a good friend now. Its still going pretty good. I made her promise if she is going to sell it that she needs to tell me so I can buy it or offer it up to the Club.
