I know it is not much now, but as you can see from the last page i have most things picked out that i am going to use. Instead of spending all my money as i get it on less important things (like lights and intakes) i am saving money up overall to be able to get the few rust areas fixed by either a shop or myself.. depends on how bad it is when we work on it. then i am going to get a 2 tone paint job (deep metallic red with metallic blue/black...some sort of unknown design). if i don't save for something, i will never get it..that is why progress has been slow lately. Hopefully by then i will also be able to purchase some other accessories for my car, its much better that way then to drive around with a half ass looking car (i understand why some people do, i just don't want to do that).
Please sign my guest book and tell me what u think about the car itself, what i have done for it, and what i plan to do.
Also please take my poll :)
And lastly.. please rate my car :)
Thank You!!
