Tarmac & Gravel | One Galant to stay clean, the other to press on regardless.
Welcome to Tarmac & GravelAfter attending the Prescott Rally in 2005, I knew I had to build a rally car. Being a dedicated DSMer, I knew I had to build a Mitsubishi. I bought 1991 Galant VR4 195/2000. But then I thought, these cars are far too rare and way too sweet for me to build one up just to stuff it in a ditch somewhere near the border, so at the Prescott Rally in 2008, I lucked out and found 1992 Galant VR4 464/1000. This site is dedicated to [464] Tarmac & [195] Gravel. One to stay clean. One to press on regardless.
Roof Removal Continues!Filed Under ([195] Gravel) by DR1665 on 10-08-2010Got the back light out of 195/2000 last night. Not a single crack, though a couple of broken razor blades. Just a quick post & picture.
I should have the car to Precision Chassis Works within a couple weeks for the roll cage install. YES! Roof Removal Begins on 195/2000Filed Under ([195] Gravel) by DR1665 on 08-08-2010Tagged Under : 195/2000, car prepBefore 195/2000 goes to Precision Chassis Works for the roll cage install, I need to finish preparing the shell. The way we’re doing things requires the roof skin to be removed which, in turn, requires the windscreen and back light to be removed. Next time you have your windshield replaced in the parking lot at work, show the technician some respect. It’s not easy.
Things You Just Hate Having to DoFiled Under ([464] Tarmac, gvr4) by DR1665 on 20-07-2010So I took 464 through emissions. It passed. I went across the street and renewed my registration. Paid in full, got my 2011 tab for the license plate – done deal. Then I had the title branded. Unfortunately, the dullard who performed the transaction didn’t tell me that salvaging the title canceled the registration and made the car ‘unlawful for highway use’ in the state of Arizona. I had to get a level III inspection at the DMV to ensure the car was roadworthy.
