(Haven't used my old acc. or the email linked to it in like a year..) I never made it out to any meets last year as I was busy with some personal stuff. So I guess here is my intro Very Happy (Hoping to meet some people this year)

Last year I started to take interest in cars when I bought my 98 Eclipse GSX from Mark L. I had just moved out of my dads place and live right off of east wash like one min from Gardners Bakery? I got a few things done on it last year and also met some helpful people. Mark L, and some guy I named in my phone 91tsi that seemed to know his shit. This year I'm looking to finally get it up and running again since I tore it down to see what was up with the transmission.

Well.. here are some pics..

My 98 GSX

Right now I have the transmission out of the car and disassembled laying in a garage, so I know what pieces need to be replaced in it..I'll probably make a post that includes those images elsewhere in the forums.

Besides that...

The person who has been helping me learn about all of this is my Mopar loving dad. (He hasn't worked on his car in over 5 years but..here it is..

Dads 67 Dodge Coronet (Drag Track: 610HP 12.15sec @ 122mph)

Well anyways, hope to see some nice cars around this year once my car is back in one piece Very Happy Haven't drove it in long over 6 months..

Here is my personal FB: https://www.facebook.com/xIKevNIx and my youtube: www.youtube.com/xHoNNy7 (I play comp xbox, and my dad and I do xmas lights to music. His house is in Cottage Grove by Mark L's dads.)

Love the coronet, almost bought one when I was 16 but got the Duster instead. My dad already had a 67 coronet R/T Mr. Norm's car lol we don't get duplicate cars unless it's a challenger or a barracuda.
