Hello,  thanx for lookin at my ride. I have been building this car for 3 years and I appreciate any positive feedback I recieve for my hard work. However if all you have is negative feedback about the way I built my car just keep in mind that it is my car and I built it the way I wanted. So please dont down rate my car because you dont like the way I built it or for it not being an import. Some of us cant afford the good stuff and the import cars..... Anyway, thanx again for checking out my ride and please rate for effort,, not cuz you dont like sumthing ive done to it.  I wouldnt give you low points for your ride after you put alot of work in it. . . . .. Anyway. Hope you enjoy my effort to build a decent car.

and here is my engine before i started the mods on it.. it was already very clean but it still didnt look very good. so it got alot of work done to it the next day also. Here is the newest pic of my engine and all the upgrades. See the difference in 3 years?

The car is an automatic, not to fast but it looked great when i saw it. Good project car. But when I first drove it there was no power behind it at all. That changed within a few days, had to change the plugs, plug wires, air filter, and some other things to give it more power. Its still not as fast as I want it to be but im working on that, Building a custom supercharger.. and some other custom things to give me more power. I cant afford the good stuff so I do what I can with what I have.... and with what I can think up.... I will post the new pics over time. Like I said, just got this car a few weeks ago and I still have alot to do...... stay tuned....

Here are the new pics. The side view of the new vinyl and the spoiler which were put on the next day. Hard work but it came out well. I guess. Dont have any nice rims just yet tho, Savin up for them and the body kit.

 

Page by page you can see how my car came to be......

The wing is a like a plastic material. I had a hard time visioning the wing on the car before I bought it so I said what the heck just buy it and it fits the car pretty well. Thanks for comments ya the car is almost done I am getting it painted while it is at the shop.
