Cody I know your wife wants you to sell the car but maybe you could compromise with her and see if she will just let it sit for a while.... That is what I am doing with mine Until after january. I have to many safety upgrades and not enough money so instead of stressing out about it i just put the car on stands. And waiting till I have enough cash to put a cage, get an sfi bellhousing and reubuild the trans! You could atleast present the idea to her lol It will be cheaper in the long run than buying another car and going through the same process of building this one.
BUTTT like i said on 318 if you feel like becoming part of team "the red dragon" I present to you an offer of sponsoring my car by way of letting me swap my pacesetters and ls6 intake for your kooks and fast 102! I will put your name and catch phrase (if you have one) on my front windshield

Of course, all this is just chit-chat as we know nothing about your family dynamic or whatever, I think we just don't want to see it go.
I know I would have thoroughly enjoyed dragging it silly with my build that is currently in progress

as long as the car is not hurting the family financially making it hard to pay bills i say keep it. I bet she would let u buy her a 10k diamond ring any day and not say anything about it. lol

yeah i was looking at that shop. looked like a nice shop. the car hit the front tire and bumper corner and spun and got the bed and rear wheel. The truck is black. The finders and doors are fine. Not that bad at all. The bed is the biggest part to be replaced. I just want it to blend with no trash in paint. i weant it to look like it never happened and i have a good eye for paint being a detailer

Dan, the paint shop next door to my work does awesome work. I hear there pretty high but you get what you pay for imo. I see fine *** cars roll out of there everyday. I'll post the name of the shop in the morning.
Steve, you need a full set? If your looking for a few I still have these 241's.
