    Bought this from a roommates co-worker about a month ago for 500 dollars with 68,000 miles on it. She thought it had some wiring problems. I replaced the alternator and battery and it runs like a dream! After that I replaced the Timing belt and water pump on it. Now it has just became a project to take up any of my free time!

    Day one!













    Bought a hardtop with broken glass for cheap!

    Made a window of lexan and a window visor!

    Polishing the hood soon!

    My friend does a lot of machining and has a lathe in his kitchen. He helped me make a titanium shift knob!


    Polished the hood a bit!

















    Relipped the rears with 3 inch lips!
    -7 offset in the rear -1 offest in the front!

        Not bad, although the wheels look massive on there!

          Good work here. I'd also second the "big wheels" comment. Although if you dig it, problem solved.

            Thanks guys! I also agree on the wheels looking big I bought them from a friend for cheap so I couldn't pass them up. I am going to get it real low when I buy top hats and see if i like the 16's when they are tucking rim! All these pictures are just work in progress!
