    Project Resurgence: Black Dragon

    As most of you know, earlier this year I was involved in an accident with my 2001 Galant. The accident left my car in horrible shape, and I swore it would never drive again.





    So I decided on a project.

    I bought a car for $200. The engine was shot but all the other parts were there. So I decided a little work was needed.



    Yes, thats the same car that was involved in the accident. I fixed it.

    The Black Dragon is back bitches! MN crew - I'll see you at the cookout! :D

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    Looking at those pics again, I never would have thought of scrapping it in the first place, but frustration can be a real bitch and time to cool off is a must. Glad to see it in one piece again!!

    You still have my old grill? Holy shit, its like Christmas! Hahaha!

    To those who wonder, I had to replace the fender, part of the core support, all A/C lines, power steering lines, coolant tank, radiator, grill, headlights (I hate electrical work!!!), and a bunch of other random crap. The car is back on the road and ready for the winter. :)

    Thanks to all the support!!
