I like the wheels man, looks like you've made some good progress. I cant wait to see more pictures. Are you planning on painting the engine bay?

Good luck buddy!

jay7199 10-07-2010 11:54 PM

Im glad to see you got the car back together man, i would hate to see that car just get trashed.

jay7199 10-07-2010 11:58 PM

I might sell you my starter if you want it.. only cranked the motor over like 3 times with it before i pulled it, its from autozone and i was thinking about upgrading to a lt4 mini starter.
