    A tip for the rocker panels.
    They ARE rusted inside. I drilled holes on the top side and used aerosol rust repair. You can drill out the nozzle a little and push in some vac tubing to extend the reach. also good for the rear wheel wells all the way forward to the read door area.

    I absolutely will do that. I plan to borrow a 360 degree sprayer from work and oiling everything.

    You're an animal. I don't think I could ever take something like that on.

    Re: 1988 Lancer Shelby

    I'm motivated by loss, I paid a lot for this car.

    question cordes, do you have a under hood light? how about drum brakes? I thought these got vented disks like the Shelby Z Daytona.
    Mine has drums.

    Ive dug out a set of egg shells. Im going to take the 16" wheels off.

    My old 88 Lancer Shelby and 22shelby's 89 Lancer Shelby both came with rear drum brakes.

    Re: 1988 Lancer Shelby

    The Lancer Shelbys came with drum brakes in the rear. I have all original documentation with mine, so if you need to see how it was optioned out, let me know. I think I even saw something recently which broke down the options for them. There were a couple options available, such as the traveler, and sunroof. Other than that, I'd have to look.

    Re: 1988 Lancer Shelby

    looks like mine has no options, maybe its power seat was added. but the navigator is the only option I really want.
    Worked on the car last night, realized I made a mistake and had to remove the core support again, it was 10mm low at one side.

    I dont know how I made such a mistake, Ive been tipple checking everything. oh well its about back to how it was a few days ago.

    Thanks for the window sticker ajakeski. Cordes do you have sales literature?

    I'm pretty sure I do. I'll have to give it another look. I have ALL documentation that has ever existed for my car. The guy who owned it before me is an incredible man. I have the business card of the salesman, the brochure from the hotel they stayed at when picking it up, etc. etc.

    Good luck finding a traveler, let alone a functional one. I got lucky and picked up one that the buttons don't work on for about $50 last summer. Cosmetically, it's awesome.

    That build sheet is cool.

    Any idea where to look in an 1989 Caravan for it?

    Re: 1988 Lancer Shelby

    I do have a perfect navigator but its from 85 or 86 and would be programmed wrong. Before all this body work started I had the dash harness out to add the navigator and the 11 voice EVA unit. I cant get the voice box to work independently so Im kinda on the fence on installing it.
    Might just leave it alone. people really seem to like the spring loaded cassette organizer. (German made eh)

    more progress . https://imgur.com/a/Td0V1

    check out the welds on the LHS vs the RHS wonder which is right.

    I'm willing to bet the margin for what's acceptable is very, very wide.

    Re: 1988 Lancer Shelby

    I like the closed joint myself. Im not a weld inspector or anything but it just seems better.

    theres a engineering drawing somewhere with the weld defined. Id imagine one is wrong but could be a better type of weld so its no problem.

    What I have I done with the last couple of days which can compare to that? As previously stated, you're an animal.

    Re: 1988 Lancer Shelby

    The second coat of white paint messed up, looks like a dry lake bed. cracks all over about 3/16th apart.
    I figure it was too cold when I painted. maybe ill read the can.

    Re: 1988 Lancer Shelby

    The paint or primer underneath was not dry, the solvents in the top coat caused the lifting.
