My newest money pit....

First off I'd like to say what's up. I'm new but I've been lurking for a little while but this is my first post. So I figured I'd show you guys what I saved from the junkyard. The car's a 94 Laguna Blue LSi that got hit at the driver's a-pillar. I'll get some pics of the damage for you guys, but needless to say the drivers door's junk and it needs some serious work. Also the passenger's door is not in the best shape as far as rust. The good news is the drivetrain is nearly perfect for having sat 2 years (fired the second we bumped the key). Also, it came with 18" OZ rims!

The plans are to rebuild the car (and fix the damn rust), and then swap a 5spd, custom intake/exhaust, stage 2 ecutune, and then look at FI (in that order).

At this point I just can't wait to drive it

Oh, and sorry for the crappy pic, I'll get more.

It looks half decent. Nice rims. The windshield is a bummer. You can probably find a used one or there's a company that sells Chinese knockoffs for about $300.00. New ones are $1,000.00 plus, if you can find one.
You'll need to save the gasket/trim from the old one if you go with the knockoff, it's not included and you can't get it from Subaru.

It's the rubber trim surounding the edges of the windshield
