So...this is my 1989 Dodge Shadow. I got it from my mom, who bought it new back in 89. It has about 76,000 miles on it. Unfortunately, this summer I got into an accident and caused the big dent in the driver door and quarter panel. I am in the process of fixing this. I would like to restore the car someday when I get the time and money. For now, though, it is getting it in driving condition. I am also putting in some new speakers to replace the stock speakers since they were fuzzy. I put DHD Power Cruiser 5.25" 3-way tri-axial speakers (350 watt per pair) in the doors and 5"x7" (450 watt per pair) in the back. Well, that's all folks. Hope you enjoy.
Before the accident...
Interior...you can't see from the pictures, but I replaced the hanging headliner.
The Wheels before I painted them...
After the accident...
^^^this taken right after the accident...
The replacement door off a 93 sundance....long story short, found out that the door had been sent to repair in the factory so it had bondo on it already...damn, I wish I would have just left the green paint on! Oh well though.
After the door and quarter were pulled. New door on car. They did a pretty shoddy job on the quarter. Not sure whether or not it's worth trying to save. Might have to get a new quarter.
