the only way to find out is put everything back and try all the buttons.
I am sure you will find something.

I know we all get excited about modding our cars, but seriously, get that rust taken care of before you focus on anything else.
There's no point in getting a car that performs well if it looks like shit, and besides, once rust really sets in, you're fucked.

Nice car, I hope your projects work out well. Get some pics of that dashboard up!

the reason im not working on the rust is becasue my dads friend is using the welder. but today i got the springs on andits way to low so im just going to cut the stockers. im ordering a cold air intake today.

i would not trust 40 buck coil overs....they might ride alright but they could break or something bad....i guess just keep a look.
