Well, back to reality. The bumper is gone--what a change! I thought it weighed about 25-30 pounds. That things weighs around 40+!!! The ass went up almost an inch when I removed it.Much cleaner look, yes?

And I had to remove the Rampage, K-mart, $29.95 special!!! Couldn't pick up a radio station if you were parked inside it!Real P.O.S.!! Have a great system coming next week. Will post as soon as it's in.

These are going all the way around to give it a little lift and much needed better ride! Purchased at Rockauto.com Great for older car parts--better price than NAPA!!!

Seats are being delivered 10/24/06. Clearance from Summitracing.com I'm doing the interior in a grey and black scheme. Also received my three point seat belts to also install. Went through the windshield of a van before--no fun!
