I felt it was necessary to continue my thread to here and the new car will hopefully turn out to be a twin turbo ls build. That's the plan at least. I just picked this car up a few weeks ago and will slowly start finishing the fab work. My ultimate goal is to make a serious contender on the street and have all the amenities that come in newer cars, and look sick doing it. This will be a very long drawn out build and will slowly take shape as time goes on.

OK Gents, I'm back. I got me a new project. I picked up this clean 1988 LX coupe body. No rust, no accidents, just minor door dings. The fabrication is about a 1/4 of the way done, may be less. It was originally a 4cyl auto car. My plans for now are to finish the fabrication (mini tub, subframes, coil over mount, arb, cage) and transfer all the parts from my old rusty coupe to this clean coupe. Im not sure what body style im gunna do (4I or Aero) but either way its gunna look good.
All my heaps

I got a lot of flack saying these wheels look like Cobra wheels anyways, so why not put a set on the coupe. when i get bored enough ill pull one off the vette ans stuff it under the coupe and snap some pics
