Went for a drive on my favorite loop today, last day of summer for me. Gonna miss the fun forest roads. I’ll be sure to come back during school and hit them again before winter. Pics taken on the good old epson photopc 750z.
The last trip with the Talon before winter was on Halloween to visit @MyronVernis and check out Valley Vibes in OH. super great trip and the inaugural run of @RMetalgear new RX-7 turbo.
One of the cheap motor mounts I replaced on the Talon broke, which I plan to fix this winter.
I realized I haven't posted much on here in months. Here's some photos from when I drove the Talon 6 hours in the rain up to the UP to spectate LSPR with the homies. Unfortunately, no one else brought their fun cars, so it was kinda just for photos I guess
The opening page of my German Eclipse catalog features a car on Borbet wheels, how German. While reading my Dec 95 Road & Track, I saw some ads for the Borbet Type C, the same wheel. I'd love to see a set with Mitsubishi caps like the photo. I assume it was a dealer option?
Today I bought a 1997 Dodge Avenger brochure and I found that it was offered in Bright Jade Pearl Coat, which doesn't appear in my 2000 Avenger brochure. Eagle Talon was offered in Bright Jade for 1997 only, maybe it's the same color? They were both built by MMMA in Normal, IL.
I left off mid head gasket job, i finished by late April and was able to take the car up to school with me for a bit before school ended. I also got a spare valve cover cause my old one was cracked, i painted it wrinkle black. I've put 3000 miles on the car since then
Took the car apart to do a head gasket, i haven't been home much so it's been nearly a month, but it should be ready to start this weekend. It was cool to see inside my now 180000 mile engine, some carbon which i cleaned but overall pretty great.
