Why a Pulsar????
...This is my 2nd MODIFIED Nissan Pulsar. My first one, which was an '86 (with the older Pulsar body style) I finished back in 2000, when I was 17. Everyone thought "I can't believe someone did up one of those little rice cookers to look like that, let alone a girl!!!"
So... years later I needed new project... so I bought another one - an '87 (when they changed body style).

Here's me with my stereo comp trophy - I won 3rd in the highest class... not bad for my first stereo competition!
And now I have "trophy fever" so I've already redesigned the entire system, which will be put into my new project car: my '92 lude, and hopefully getting new amps to bring home a bigger trophy next summer!!!

Here are before pictures of my 1987 Pulsar
The process begins...
This is my Precidia keeping my Pulsar going in those bitterly cold Canadian Winters!!!
This is me on Day 1 - every nut & bolt is placed into it's individual precisely labelled zip-lock bag!
Towing my baby home with a TOE STRAP.... which is completely illegal... I thought we'd get pulled over for sure!!! Doesn't my Pulsar look so little and cute???
Here I am ready to dive into yet another challenging day put forth by my ever complicated IMPORT!!!
Mike and I make a great Man Against Machine Tag Team - I'm petite and can fit into the hard to reach places and Mike is strong to crack loose those never been removed before bolts... I think he looks like Vin Diesel in this picture!!!
