New project for the winter

Well since my floorpans are rotting away, I decided that instead of messing with any of that, I'd get a decent body and swap some parts over. SO I picked this car up for 125 bucks, and I think I'll have something decent once I get everything swapped and get a paintjob on it. Its a 91, same motor as mine, has some problem with the fuel injectors to get running, but I dont think it'll be major. What do you guys think?

Oh yeah, I'm gonna have alot of fun with this thing. The interior is coming out tommorrow, I'm gonna put some insulation on the floors, redo all that, redo the front end after. I fully expect to be into spring before it moves, but it'll be worth it in the end.

me too. It looks straight with the naked eye, but I guess I wont know till its driveable. I have a new k-member in the old car, so thats not a problem, and i dont think it'd be too bad that I couldnt get it pulled either way.

oh yeah I know. The car in my sig was wrecked in the front, it really never drove the same after. I figure it cant be any worse than crashing over a curb and having a Jeep Cherokee sitting on your hood.
