  • Greg has gone far beyond the call of duty on puttin' this little beast together. No way I can repay him for what he's done. Unless I win Powerball. Oooohhh, good plan! I'll get on it right away!

                  • Looks awesome, soooo sleeper. The only thing bothering me is how both the intake and battery are on the drivers side... leaves the passenger side kinda bare looking, kinda unequal.

                      I thought about that too; might put an 88-89 coolant overflow tank over there. But I do like all the room you have to work on the belts & pulleys. And the coolant tank wouldn't interfere with that.

                      The wheels look absolutely fantastic! They are Gen 1 (1986 - 89) 323 wheels BTW. Festiva bolt pattern. More sleeper than the Estrellas fer shure.

                      Love the fake tailpipe too!

                            Now isn't that interesting!
                            I made the Orange/Red polyproplyene material for the handles for those.
                            The black TPE was over molded onto the handle in a separate molding process.
                            And the best part, eurotiva will like this, they were made in Johnson City, TN.
                            Snap-On used to give me a couple of sets of those screw drivers every Christmas.
                            I think I still have an unopened set somewhere.
                            I heard they sold the set for $150.
