I am showing my car there.  I am coming from spanaway so I will just see you guys there.  Mine is a driver in progress

I din't get back from our big training event untill 03Feb so I missed this one. Do we have the next one scheduled yet?

That sounds good. Let's set a date for the first weekend in Feb. What do all want to do? Grits garage seems like a nice place to to start.

I work on Joint Base Lewis McChord and I am lonely.  I have not seen another 2002 out this way at all.  When is the next official meet up?  Anyone up for a get together in in a week or 2?

Highway 7 to the Mt Rainier is a great drive down through Elbe.  I live in Spanaway so it is really close to me.  I just hit 7 and head south

yep  no side drafts or anything.

I hope I can get to it before they get rid of it. I need a lot of little parts.

I ended up getting 69 Hp on the dyno. I have some work to do.

Thanks for the help and suggestions guys. I am going to try drilling it while I continue to look for parts.

This Saturday 24OCT15 The Mustang Shop is having a Dyno Day.  It is 60 bucks to run your car on the Dyno and get true HP numbers.  They are doing it as a social event for the local racers with an informal car show in the parking lot.  They said it would go all day.  I will get there at around 4:00 PM.

I hope to see some of you there!

The little metal knob that my wiper arm sits on is stripped on the inside.  It spins freely with the wiper arm off.  I have been looking for a place to buy the part but, I have had no luck so far.  Does anyone know where to buy that piece of my wiper system?  The passenger side wiper works fine.  I hit it with a punch trying to create some friction but that only lasted one swing of the wiper arm.  Can I weld this thing?  I am in Spanaway Washington. Someone please help me before the rain starts.

I can buy a cheap one at o'rielly's for 6 bucks. My question is if this thing will work and do i just pull out the old one? Is it screwed in or anything? I have searched but found only adverts for people selling.

Lol I baught the second one I saw. I plan on fixing the little paint bubbles and the rust causing them. Thanks for the tip about blunttecj

I am buying the one I looked at last night. The engine bay and the shell were in too good a shape to pass up. The things I need to fix are small things. The only question I have is how hard is it to replace shifter bushings? The ones in this car are toast.

How would I be able to tell if it were a ti? I dont think they would be selling it for that kind of money if it were.

I am looking at this one tonight.https://seattle.craigslist.org/kit/cto/5158283334.html

It looks like I will be going to the field for a bit in a few days so I will not be able to make it down to Portland for a few weeks. I will look at that when I get back if it is still available.

I am new to this site and in the process of finding my first 2002. There are a few for sale on CL in our area and I was wondering if anyone would be willing to go look at some with me. Some time. I am going to look at this one tonight at about 6 https://seattle.craigslist.org/kit/cto/5158283334.html What do you guys think of it?

Catlin Customs, thank you for the suggestions.  I am going to call about the white one in Portland. That car looks really nice. I looked at the green one in Seattle and it is covered in Bondo over rust. the Black one is gone already.  

Thanks guys, I will keep looking.

I am looking to buy my first 2002 and have found a few for sale on CL near me. The nicest one I can afford has some front end damage bit the rest looks good in the add. My question is how hard is the front end of one of these cars to buy? Do I need to cut the grill off of another car or is there a place that sells replacement body panels that I have not found yet?

Here is a link to the add so you guys can look at the pictures. https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/5156718522.html please tell me what you guys think of the car in general and how hard that front end is to fix. I have a welder and basic tools.

Thanks for your help.
