Nothing other than a cb radio but had new floor pans put in and new suspension, brakes, fuel system, and a detailing.

Build story

Well I just bought the car recently but have been working on it for the past few months, it was owned by the school I go to and was supposed to be fixed and ready to sell 15 years ago but apparently some kids got to messing with the electrical and it wouldn’t run anymore. The teacher deemed it a lost cause and it sat in the yard for 15 years until I went into auto shop, I was fiddling around with the distributor and was able to get it to run for a few seconds. After that we found that the fuel pump was bad and only putting out about 12psi (we needed 50, side effects of a fuel injected v6) we are still yet to get to that. Now running on a story my teacher gave me is saying that the previous owner loved this car to death and kept it very clean, but one day he got occupied with life and the car sat for ten years, when it was donated to the school it had the floor pans so badly rusted that the front seats had fallen into the backs (consequences of t tops and living on the west coast lol). It came to the shop and ever was re done and then we come full circle to where it is today, after spring break I plan on putting it on the lift and dropping the tank to get to the pump. Anyway thanks for reading this far, I hope to get it on the road sometime in august which is when I get my license, also a side note, other than the interior it is probably the one of the cleanest third gens out there.
