The thumbnail is just in case anyone has a question which car this video is about...
I'm making preparations for 2 different things here. 1) Reassembly preparations for one group of parts going to powder coating, and 2) chassis preparations for a body that's going off to paint. I demonstrate multiple techniques I use to ensure I can put factory parts back together properly again once they're reunited... in much greater detail than with the Galant, and what's a Jafromobile video without another expensive unboxing? You can stockpile parts all you want in advance. It's still going to cost you more parts once you start taking it apart. Another example that you are never done ordering parts.
We're wrapping up the same level of deconstruction that's already been done to the Galant, but I've done it in only two videos instead of 3. You saw the baseline and now it's completely blown apart. These two series of videos highlight the contrast between "first generation" and "second generation" DSM suspensions and driveline parts. Two things that are the same, but that are still very different.
We'll pick back up on this one again once parts return from powder coating. ...and if the Galant was any indicator, that won't be very long at all. The tubular subframe replacement has made Justin's job a whole lot easier this time around.
Two parallel restorations are a handful, but I enjoy filming my progress and sharing it with you here. Ad revenue only pays a fraction of what my videos cost to make.
