Love the car so far but I still hate you for stealing it from me!

Awesome my friend. It's great that it came together for the trip and you were able to enjoy it after a long down time.

I think it's great to see a project develop like this - it really shows a fun and effective real world build that anyone can do with any first gen' without laying out a bunch of cash.

A serious driver that anyone can replicate!

tyler took me for a ride in this car today, and let me say this thing handles and stops like a CHAMP.... im amazed that such a simple suspension setup can handle so good and even with drums still in the rear the car stop on a dime, also its ride real nice even though its got some stiff spring rates.
its is a great car that prove it doesent take tons of money or exotic suspension setups to still have fun.
and lets just say the finish product of this car is gonna blow some folks away!!!

Here is a close up of the tow hook. Steve- making one with an extended hook and bracket so you can trim it for Bad Penny.


I also got bored at the shop and found something in my storage that I thought would bring the car up to an open track car. We still have to align the grill, install and wire the PIAA lights, and paint it, but you get the idea.



We even added a carbon splitter for fun:



One more. I hope SatisTraction sees this- he is a HUGE fan of my body kit.
