Well my step dad works next to a guy that has a big rig and he does big equipment repairs. Anyway, his truck is called the brown bomber and my step dad has repeatedly called my car that, so when he had it parked outside I had to grab my camera and snap some pictures:

I keep on joking with the guy that I need the brown bomber logo on my car along with EW-6 (he owns 1-5) and then on the back of the truck he has "Down for Brown" :shock: He keeps on telling me where he got his done and that they can get me a set.

Your almost in with the team... :lol:

Gonna have to come down here again for a proper induction.

The initiation isn't too humiliating. What is your preference in goats?

Well I got my new tires on the car today (huge thank you to aggressive ted) they are 215/60/r14 in the rear and 195/75/r14 in the front, I had 185 snow tires on it. It handles like a different car now! No more "tippy" feeling in the corners, its a very good change.

CJ: I will have to make a trip that way soon!

More work tonight, I wet sanded the primer around the windshield and started working on the crunched driver side quarter panel, its pretty rough right now, but a couple days worth of hammering and mud and it should be straight.

Still need to get the duct tape residue off the primer :roll:

More to come,

Update: It's been a while since I updated this thread, I got a new Idler arm on the car along with a wheel balance and it is 100 times better going down the road now. I got my 2.25" side exhaust on the car and I picked up a holley 2300 (350 CFM) 2 barrel, a intake with the carburetor mounting 90 degrees from the stock 2 barrel, a set of dutra duals and head pipes. I also started working on the crunched quarter panel, I laid down the first coat of bondo yesterday on the valance panel under the bumper on the driver side, looks straight again, probably going to get another skim coat to fill in the small low spots.

Girlfriend with the car, you can see the exhaust in front of the rear tire:

More to come soon,
