Hope you like new parts, because will be a lot of those posts.

New lights and all the hardware for them.








Filled first parts box already

This project is quickly outgrowing my tiny garage.




New radiator support on the hood

When I tried to source a new windshield I was told it's discontinued and there were 2 remaining in the country. The first one arrived in a million pieces. So I present to you the last oem windshield in the usa.

Well the project def outgrew the garage. Hopefully the storage unit will be able to handle all the parts.

Started removing items from the car. I hope no one was driving this thing with that floor repair.

Thanks to a fellow enthusiast I was able to source a new fuel tank.

Nice road ahead. I was eyeing the R as well until he sent me those floor pan pics. Looks like you got the right stuff headed back on the car. Good luck

Great work so far. Looking forward to following this thread.

Wow, I am always impressed when someone takes on the challenge of rebuilding from a shell. 98-1040 started as a shell, and it was a challenging but educational experience. The price to time to reward factor is not for the faint of heart, so kudos sir. I'm also blown away by your OEM affection. My CC hurts just thinking about it. Best wishes in the build sir! Please continue to document the process. I recommend cataloging for your own enjoyment down the road, it will make an excellent coffee table book.

I also aim to make a rebuild calendar one day.

Great progress Mark! Subscribed
