Well, I fell in love with this 1991 esprit se and just had to have it. Now I do. Even after 1 month I still find myself going to the garage just to look at "my baby" I feel obsessed.(in a good way). Looking to rebuild the car and go through it completely just so I know what I have. I guess I have entered the

Welcome to the forum Mike. You will soon be able to moan along with the other big guys at how you can't fit in all the tight places to work on the car. Being a squirt has it's bonuses

Mike, Troys our resident Mechanical genius so he's the man to beg help from. He's also our resident Hobbit, at just over 12 inches.........

Yeah, what they said...

Welcome Big Mike!

I think Kimbers is referring to Troy's height but, judging by the respect he gets around here, I could be wrong.

[bigmike208]

Ordered the "workshop manual" hopefully it will get her by friday so I can remove the engine and transaxel this weekend. I have heard estimates of 10 hours for removal, I will let you know how long it takes me. Could someone suggest where a fellow might purchase the 2002 rear light set-up for sweet?

Thank You

Mike

P.S. it is tuff getting in and out of the car but if it aint tight I do not want to be there anyway! Love the handeling!!!!

Troy, are you really only 12" high!!Long live the Hobbit!!!!!
