Well I thought about it but didnt want to leave it there parked on the streets in se. The car is parked inside at least and is safe.

You should just go walk the streets and ask random people to take you there for money. Either that or pretend to be a bum for awhile and make enough for a cab.

I'll take some pics and post them in a bit. Looks niiiiiiiiice.

Damn I forgot how to drive the friggin car. First thing I did was go over and down to try and find reverse. Couldnt find it thought there was something wrong with the car go inside tell Sam and the shop foreman, (who likes my car and drove it a few times) comes over and says there's nothing wrong with it. I show him what I'm doing and laughs and says reverse is up DOH! Been driving the Kia so long I forgot and daymennn its night and day between the two. I've got a -1.2 camber and 0 toe with +2.5 caster for an alignment with the new front end and it turns on a dime. I'm used to cranking the wheel in the 184000 mile Kia

I almost did a u turn the first time I changed lanes

Runs a little rough though, needs to be re-tuned now that it has the 90/90 on it. Thats another thing. that NW TB return spring is stiff sumnabitch... I need a few days to get used to my car
