TO DATE - the exhaust has been installed and all the electrical done.
the car is running smoothly with decent power.
the new LSDiff will go on soon with rear disc breaks
and a new 4 core radiator has been purchased and installed.

once this is done its back to the body shop to paint the body and mount the exterior back up

on another note

i need an expert in leather upholstering.
i have new carpets on order for it from australia
but i will cover over the seats and want a good job done the first time!!!

thanks guys...its something that my dad and I have been working on for the last 4 yrs
sure does take up time and $$$

everytime I start to get impatient he is there to calm me down and now we are ending up with something to be proud of!!!

I am trying to get some old school RWD wheels out of Malaysia from a buddy of mine that has a hook up there
If that does not work out i will hit the scrap yards and see if I can get the 14" original mags.

headlight housings, grill, and other assorted plasitc finishers have all been chrome painted and the bumpers will be rechromed soon..


I STILL WANT TO GET THE ORIGNAL BUMPER OVER RIDER FINISHERS...but all that i have found so far are rusted to hell and back.

give jack his jacket ..the little engines are performing well....they might explode during a performance :lol: ...but even so they are readily avaliable and easily replaced...and as i said... if i had 2 choose between a ford 2000 old school ..and a sr20...id go with the sr20 any day in terms of performance....

PS.. I always beckon the V8 fellas.. to up the ante ...and save our fraternity ..from continuous embarassment from these lil four bangers....and soon u younguns will see...we are throwing away our smog heads... we are still well armed ...and DANGEROUS... :twisted: ..as mi pardner would say ...soon..at a highway near you.. :twisted:
