Oh by the way see that spot at the front of your car near the windshield ??? Do your self a quick 20min favour. Take a pick pull all the orignial body sealer from there and look for rust if its good whip it down and re body seam seal it. Thats the first place the car will start leaking. Or this is what you might find later. Mine had jut a tad bit of rust tell i pulled all the sealer off it

I think mine should be fine. It had very little rust anywhere on the car, and I pulled the hood hinges off and it was as clean as could be down there!

Thanks everybody. Going to work on it after work tomorrow. I am having some ground clearance issues with the B pipe. Should be getting an alignment and new tires put on early this week and can hopefully have some fun in it then.

Its coming... nice and slow like always. I had some exhaust clearance issues, and tried to fix it because as of now, it wont even fit on an alignment rack. So the test pipe back is all off. Its supposed to get painted this weekend, so as long as it doesnt snow here in Ohio, it should be done. Will hopefully have some more updates tonight!

did you get everything sorted out with your car? Any luck getting anything back you found on that car FS?

Going by that, I take it that it is good news! I would really like to know what you found out... My PM box is always open...

Regardless, I hope you come back with something good and that dude gets what he deserves.

So I went and put the car back together today. Went back together fairly easy, but still needs to be wet sanded and buffed. Took a few pics on the way back to the garage.
