Awesome build! I never gave the neons much credit until I bought my neighbors 97 sport 4 door for a work car. 125k on it with a rusted brake line and kickdown was frozen with the shifter {auto trans}. Fixed the brake line and lubed up the kickdown and been driving the wheels off it, got 160k on it now. Fun little car to drive, I gave him $375 almost 2 years ago and replaced tie rods, one wheel bearing and couple tires since.
