Greetings everyone. My name is ApollosWorld.
I joined this forum for a very specific purpose and I hope this thread will help others while it continues.
About 14 years ago, I purchased a 1985 MR-2 with moon roof.
I purchased it for about $3,000.00 and I only drove it for about 2 years. The reason being is that I had to replace the clutch twice and
then had a life changing event that basically sent me on another path for quite a while. So instead of fixing it AGAIN, I forgot about it
because I was tired of putting money into it all the time.
I left the MR-2 in my moms drive-way for the last 12years. Never starting it, never even opening the doors.
Well after 12 years of just sitting there, my mom gets a notice from the county where they tell us to move it or lose it. I decide to have
it towed to my house and start the restoration process.
Now let me tell you....After 12 years of just sitting there, I open the hood and just all kinds of bugs,cobwebs, rust and corrosion has done
a lot of damage.
So NOW I'm on a mission. I want to restore it little by little one part at a time. Once it is fully functional, I will give it to my son.
Now here is where I hope the community can help me with:
I will begin logging what parts and progress I am making and update you with pictures. I am already running into issues whereas I see
parts I don't know what they are for, or even necessary for that matter.
My following post after this intro will give you an example of what I'm talking about. I would like to thank everyone and anyone in advance
for your assistance.
Sincerely,
Apollo!
