So can you go "tag" his wheels with some plasti dip some night and see what he says?

I'll pay for the Plastidip.

And the Spyder gets a new life...

Earlier this year Hans told me it was sold to someone in Dubai, and wondered if I had the rebuild info we had on the tonneau. I was happy to find the info we put together for the St Louis NG and give it to him.

Hadn't see the member post about it but once when he was asking about colors to paint it, so I finally contacted him on messenger to ask what happened to it.

I thought you guys forgot this beautiful car

Your the first to see

1G spyder plus full rebuild engine and trans

I will update you once it's fully done

It'll be one of a kind. it's the only spyder in Dubai

I don't want to steal this guy's thunder...so don't go reposting the video/image. I'm sure he'll unveil it when ready.

It's just good to see it survived...again.

Holy Frankenstein...

huh, a first gen spyder

That's what I wanted to do! With the European lights and painted bumper strip.

I'm really happy he's doing this.

Or is it a negative 1 gen spyder since only one gen of spyder? Or maybe they cancel out and it's a 0gen I'll stop.

When this drops there are going to be some pissed off Spyder owners I bet

Not gonna lie....that's something I was looking forward to if we had kept the car and gone with my plan. Part of the fun of owning a salvaged car is the collector value is long gone. So you can be creative with it.

For sure. I've always wanted to see a Stealth conversion on a Spyder

This one that popped up not that long ago. It's a 96 too. Considerably more rare than the 95s.

He’s got that knock off hood on it. The vents are really odd. Glad to see he’s doing something with it though.

Surprisingly well done. Only gripe is it needs 96 tt wheels and a drop. Then its perfect. I mean a hood spoiler would be nice, but probably not with how long that rear decklid is.

Really surprised Chrysler didnt push for the spyders back in the day. I mean they were all finished for Mitsu here in the US anyways.

They couldn't sell the ugly Stealth as it was, no one wanted a crazy expensive ugly convertible...

*Hides*

Sold more than Starions.

I don't know what you guys who like the 1G styling over the 2G are smoking, but you seem to be well through the bag.

I like both.

But I'm also tired of seeing the same old shit. There are no 1G Spyders, obviously. So why not take one that was trashed and make it unique instead just leaving it stock or slapping the same tired old 99 bumper on it?

Anyway....Vira tells me he's doing fender flares now. I love fender flares. This guy is my hero.

like screw on black plastic fender flares??
