    Like where this is going.. but please lose the zebra print carpet.. clashes against the wood, and the stickers in the interior take away from the overall look imo. just my .02.

    yeah I'll snap some later tonight, thou they wont be goign on until next year as snow is coming fairly soon. getting a set of diamond steelies made as well, and gonna see if I can get my old set of rpf1s and maybe if im lucky a set of bbs rs as well. trying to wheel whore the car out next year.

    You ever thought of rocking a wood grain hood on your car? think it would look pretty sweet with the look your going for. I was planning on doing the roof if I had got a black sedan, but since I got a red one, I wont be

    well i'm pretty positive i'm going to be pulling my fenders even possibly riveting on some fender flares. i love rat rods, and this car will definitely be on it's way to that once the wheels are on. oem chevy ftw man! love to see them polished, got any pics?

    fucked up that one cut on the middle access board. i'm gonna touch it up over time and get it looking real good. shift knob will be wood of course. i forgot how damn good the factory pioneer sub sounds in this car!

    they are 1/4" thick steel plates i machined to fit under the bottom bolts on the hubs. it's really not the best idea. i know the risks i am taking here, and it's stressing parts of the rear that shouldnt be stressed. it also throws out the rear toe. to do this correctly. order real shims from SPC special products company they make eccentric bolts and such. make sure you have a lot of time on an alignment machine if you want to get it right.
