And yeah, I wish I had a 2 door though :( It'd be a lot beter than having a gutted 4 door with no backseats haha

Sooo, I got the headliner out tonight, and finally realized why our cars handle so terribly. I probably removed 150 lbs worth of stuff from my roof (sound deadening, headliner, rails, etc.) All that roof weight has got to cause some body roll.... Prepping the interior for paint (floor, roof), but I am not excited to cover everything. Anyone have ideas to make my life easier instead of using cut up garbage bags?

Soooooo!

I have the engine and tranny out, haven't gotten into either of them yet though. Been doing alot of bodywork/paint. I bought some nice wheels for the car as well, off of a crown vic of all things! I'll have some pictures up next weekend. The car is looking super mean right now. Also, trying to get my hands on some used sun gauges (boost, tach, and a/f). Anyone know where to get some?

So it turns out that due to lack of funding this year, that the car is going drag for this year, because I can't afford the suspension components with school coming up. I will still update this regularly, and the car should be strip worthy in about a month or so.

Update! Removed about 30 lbs worth of useless wiring. Running one headlight, one tail light, no front/rear bumpers, no wipers, no heater, fuel cell, and I'm just about to finish up the gauge situation. I'll post pics up when I get it finished. Next up is suspension and tranny. Using poly bushings all around and that's it for now. For the tranny I'm just going to give it a rebuild and a quick shift. Hoping to run in the high 12's this year, but it may be improbable.

I don't think we've heard anything from him in about a year...

I think his turbo drift car idea would've been pretty neat. Dunno if he ran out of money or drive, but I think he had alot of his n/a parts for sale a while back.
