I really enjoy all these threads. You should just flip cars and document them like this.

Thanks...
Id love too flip, but feel guilty/ toouxh consciouss if not 100% so usually lose $$$... My neighbor down the street I sold last two to tercel $600, and $1700 for tracker, he got $900 and a north star caddy trade, and 2400 so he has that magic...smh...

But I think I'll have these builds for a while....saturn, tacoma, and document whatever happens to f smog...

So I powered through after work. Took about 4-5 hours with breaks... Mindblown how saturns have removable skins. Never seen it before.

So I went out to try and fix why no turn signals... This was the project I avoided on mini me when I put the lift on and instructions said I had to put spacer in (but I dont think it was necessary) near rag joint which caused steering wheel to be off and when I fixed it, the clockspring was broke... So I tried to take my rime and avoid abs light no horn in this car....

I will try fuses to see if it resets as I dont want to pick n pull this piece...

The only other issue is master window switch I just ordered off ebay...

And the horn/ but may be clockspring
