well today i did some work to the neon it was like 70 out so i had some motavation!

i took my front bumper off and took the intercooler out since no more boost...

took my single fog out since the other one was broken from a snow storm last year :banghead: i was so pissed

then i also finally took the rest of my AC shit out and now its time to finish cleaning my dirty bay.

i did a little painting to the radiator support to clean it all up.

then lastly i took my halo/projectors out and put the stocks in with eye lids, way to many people have projectors now so i kinda dont want them. i like raccoons better.

then i finally washed it after it raining here for like days. ill hopefully have some pics up tomarrow. and tomarrow i want to try and do a little interior work roll my back bumper because i have a side exhaust now.

im not really sure..... i wanted a 1st gen really bad and this car is rust free and really clean compared to my 2nd gen. i have been slowly cleaning up the bay and fixing all the hacked wiring...

im planning on getting another one but i think im going to get a white one instead. the rust on my 2002 was working its magic and starting to own the car... getting a 2nd gen is in the plans for this summer

After having owned one of the first 1GN's made, I find it interesting when someone who starts with a 2GN goes backwards (not in a bad way, just thought that I should make that clear :) ).

What's going on with the instrument cluster in the 1GN? :shock:

wow, that is alot of wiring!!! good luck cleaning it up, it looks like it needs alot of tlc.

by 2001rt32
it needs alot of tlc.. its a slow work in progress.. im working on all the wiring problems first, im almost done with that part tho. the rad fans were on a switch so they could be manually turn on and off and i forgot to turn it on one night and got really hot so i pulled all that out and made a new rad fan harness and now they work great off the ecu, its sooo nice. im currently making my own fuse panel for the gauges. nothing in this car was/is soldered so im also going thu and soldering/shrink wraping everything.. never buy a modified car again..... ugh
