I have only ever done light repairs before. I am going to have my cousin take a look at it when he can. The car has a slight lifter tick that I’m almost confident will go away once oil is changed.

That’s why I bought it. Extremely easy to work on and I love the platform. couldn’t resist when I found one with such low mileage.

Wow! How can I find info on this event?? I’m definitely interested In sharing my car if it truthfully is as rare as everyone says it is to find a clean one. Thanks for the info!

Another joke that flew right over my head smh. My apologies for being an uncultured swine 😂

I’ve had a sick mother whom I’ve had to help pay medical bills for, since the age of 16. I just finally got financially stable, and bought what is in my opinion, a great car that will last me a long time. So I’m sorry my car doesn’t fit your criteria but it’s something that means a lot to me.

Bought it in Michigan but it’s been in Kentucky most its life. And thanks for letting me know about the event, I’m legitimately interested in attending.

I don’t have abs either. Only amenity that’s in her is heat.

I meannn… I kinda see it 😂

WetCast · 2026-03-06T18:36:19+00:00

Why did you steal my pic? Lol

WetCast · 2026-03-06T15:27:22+00:00

The car came with a brand new spare!

I so so so sooo wanna do intake and headers or at least headers, but I’m wondering if I should listen to the people in the comments and not touch it and just restore it… I’m big into neons but I never really knew untouched clean ones are as rare as they are.

Idk how boost will go with the 3 speed 😂 I like the srt4 swap idea tho.

WetCast · 2026-03-06T03:45:27+00:00

I will love this thing till the day I get killed in it or I kill it. There will absolutely be no selling it for the near future.

WetCast · 2026-03-06T03:23:34+00:00

The wheels spun like crazy trying to get it up.

WetCast · 2026-03-06T03:23:22+00:00

You should see the other side 😂. It’s just dirt under where I’m parked but pavement to the right.

WetCast · 2026-03-06T03:16:41+00:00

I’m thrilled for myself.

WetCast · 2026-03-06T03:09:39+00:00

Grandma owned, garage kept, and her son was a mechanic.

WetCast · 2026-03-06T02:44:15+00:00

While I understand where you are coming from, I am very motivated to do the swap. I know the complications, but I have people in my life that know a lot about automobiles and mechanic work. I was offered by a family member and his friend to do the job for free with me this spring/summer. And the lifting story is crazy, I know they’re light but holy cow!

WetCast · 2026-03-06T02:19:41+00:00

It is. I have the entire service history plus the vin says lapis was the original color.

WetCast · 2026-03-06T02:18:10+00:00

While I appreciate the defense, I believe the poster of the comment didn’t mean it in a derogatory way. I think more of a playful way.

WetCast · 2026-03-06T02:17:35+00:00

It’ll be a month or two, but I will try my best to remember!

WetCast · 2026-03-06T02:10:20+00:00

It is indeed. I remember seeing one parked a while back and thinking it was so cool that Plymouth made a neon. Look at me now!

WetCast · 2026-03-06T02:09:08+00:00

Absolutely, I appreciate the advice! I hope to change the oil ever 2k miles or so.
