and yea we use guns around here but im not gonna lie the bay was rattle canned lol..

 

you should of cleaned up that b series motor before dropping it in but other then that it looks good...!!!

 

nice lol, well atleast you're honest.

great first drive vid btw, bet your neighbors loved it lol.

 

lol actually not my house... my boys house the kid i got the car from... we did eveything in his garage before i even took the car home... and i started to clean up the motor a bit but i was too tired and didnt really care... as the title says i am also building an ls-v so this motor is only temporary... it was jus so i can be content with power until i get the ls-v done... stock dual point 1.5 jus dont cut it...

 

looks nice seems like the work paid off

 

yea it did the car still needs alottt of work tho i need to buy a 88-89 shell and use alot of clips and moldings and stuff from it and i need to cut the front clip too cuz this shell was in a crash...

 

nice thread. i really like those bottle caps! get her painted and throw on a StreetFAB roof cap and this car would b MEGA sik!

 

Cancer sucks use a respirator.

 

i wish i had c/f roofcap money lol... and im too g for a resperator haha... i plan on doin the full carbon top thing (hood, roof, and trunk) not only for looks but also for weight reduction...

 

yeah, who wants functioning lungs?!? thats for squares, not OG's.

sicc lil hatch bro, get that thing sprayed, what r u gonna do with the interior?

 

as for interior i plan to get door panels and i have a center console already... but everytyhing else i plan on strippin the rest of the sound dedening and then paiting the whole inside either black or white... i plan to paint the car white in the spring...

 

Why paint everything in the bay? Looks like garbage to me, but you did good prep.

 

well first thing it was a last minute thing kinda and came out good for the time allotted... and how does it look like garbage?

 

looking good, but you should've cleaned that motor up first lol..

it's funny when i started my car the wipers went on also. lol. its hilarious.
