I don't see it...wait...you got a new radiator cap




Looks absolutely sick man. This car definately comes to mind when I think about the cleanest birds I've seen. The great thing I like about it is it looks like it could have come from the factory that way, for the most part (minus the nitrous plate ) It's built to race, but pretty enough and so tasefully done it could be taken to a car show as well. Show and Go are two things you don't see together enough, kudos

Looks like you had a BMR STB, K&N, and TB cover added when you bought it. Couple things have changed since then though.

Do you still have the accordian bellows? I sold mine years ago and should have just kept it as I have had the Fernco on there for over 10 years. Just asking.

And stop taking pics of my car!

Might be just me, but I think a car like that should stay stock or near stock...



Nice build, and very clean

Actually I put all that stuff on it and the first pics were after hours of cleaning all the sticky nasty factory undercoating off.

Dont have any of the engine bay when I first got the car.
