Hey Marty, I wanna give you props for taking a truck that already runs impressive, and just basically making it scream like a raped-ape. For years I've owned a '91 Sonoma ext cab. I love my truck. Never let me down. And let me tell you, the crap that I've put it through.... it should've turned on me like a rabid dog. Well this past year has proven to be most destructive for it. People just ain't got no respect for other people prized possesions. I had a kid, thinking he was playing GTA3, literally swerved and rammed the driver-side door while on the freeway. Shortly after that, some punk smashed out the psngr-side window and destroyed the interior for my system. And just recently some jive turkey with his welfare checks, (kids) bouncing around in the front seat, plowed into the back while he was backing out of a parking spot.. Maybe I'm over dramatic, but when I look at it, I just wanna cry. Things been so good to me, even with 250k on the original motor, I can't give it up. I AM GOING TO RESTORE THIS TRUCK, and make it a very respectable sleeper. If you can point me in the right direction with who I should talk to about what kind of setup I wanna run, and what parts are available to me, I'd greatly appreciate it.

03-05-06 Update (Firewall is complete)

Well it's finally done and i think this is the final one. The good news is Dave said i could have a discount on the next firewall if i wanted to make a 4th attempt. But i think this is the last one. We may do some final tweaking with a billet panel.

Dave made a releaf for the downpipe

Since the wiper cowl drains water out of the rockers, We had to make sure that now water would get into the cab. So there are actually two firewalls.

The first piece going in

Wow has Caleb Davis of Permanetly Stained Auto Restoration come thru for me once again. If you are in the Illinois area and you need a good paint and body guy give him a call 815 243 1483

Here is what my P-Side Corner looks like after his handy work. You may not remember but this piece of plastic used to have a exhaust cut out in it.

just in case you forgot

Thanks again Caleb - Your the best
