Yay for filler stage! Your build is a big inspiration to many including mine so keep up the amazing work! I can't wait to get started on my bay.

This makes me want to shave my bay and not shave my bay at the same time. Props for you doing all the work though man, it's going to be worth it.

To keep this thread alive, I sold my awful focus wagon daily yesterday, and now I'm driving my sisters car for two weeks while her license is suspended. So this leaves me carless in two weeks, which is just the time when I'm gonna be meeting up with the owner of this:




It's an 85 es with some rust and 207k miles on it. It has just the right amount of rust to be not as nice as the car I'm currently building. So that will be my new daily, getting it for $1600.

The plan is to throw the bc coils on it once they come in and take it to sowo since my bay and paint won't be done on my other car, most likely on a set of my friends diamond racing wheels. This car will be my daily/ drift slut, so get excited for that

Plans: (these take a backseat to the other build don't worry)

-Weld the 3.73 open diff that's on it now
-ecu chip from my old ecu
-build some cheap as fuck coils after the other car is done
-flares
-dumb exhaust
-wheels too wide
-drift the piss out of it
-fuck bitches

That's all assuming everything works out and the guy is able to bring the car up from NC in two weeks to meet up and sell it.

Badass, keep it up!

i finally got one thing done today, i got my valve cover sandblasted at my friends house. its gonna need a little bit of filling still and i have to decide for sure on a color, i was planning on white to match my wheels originally, but now im going to be getting the faces machined by vrwheels, so the white wouldnt go with anything. i may go with flat or wrinkle black, but i dont really like the idea of a 100% black engine.
