but as I bought the best car I could get for my budget, I only can start with the things that won't cost me to much money.
First on the list is a manual trans, and wheels and tires. Then it's up to what kind of deals come around. Be leave me Rob I ain't buying no NEW wheels. Marty already made me an offer I may not be able to pass up. So next is the trans which I'm looking for now, I may just get a 4sp for now as I really don't want to buy to many parts more then once. The ride height is very nice (40 year old suspension) so maybe a god set of shocks and call it a day.
Brakes will be some kind of OEM stuff C6 and brackets from Tobin at Kore.
So that leaves me to the body and paint, remember I don't have to take the car anywhere to get it painted! And I can knock out an awesome jobs fairly quick, and paint well it doesn't cost me anything so this will most likely get done first thing.
Anyway off to sand the paint off of my car
