Well, theres logical reasoning behind that. My car has spent too much time sitting having a few bugs worked out of it, and I've run out of time for it to sit. I got a new job as the Assistant Manager at Big 10 Tires, and when I have a 2nd vehicle, I can afford the down time, but for now, we're looking to clean the car up and remove it from loud, redneck embarrassment status to an adult owned car.

I was supposed to have a stall and gears put in but its been there so long, I cant bum rides anymore.

I realized that go fast can hold its horses for a minute, because I'm tires of the looks people give my car when they get up close to it, and personally, I am tired of looking at holes and salad shooters. (rust holes thru the hood)

I'll post pics when I have the wheels and tail lights in, the rest will come with time.

She'll hit the body shop flailing and screaming by December for a full paint job.

That's a nice list of things you have going on there. Mine is similar, but it includes cam, valvetrain, pulleys, alum d/s, retune, stall, DRs, all the fun stuff.

Good luck and I am looking forward to some pictures!
