I made them from scratch, then decided to take them off and now the doors open like normal. just shaved handles. .... couldn't get past the idea of how hard it would be to get fuel, or park in a crowded lot. ......... if you look through the 50 pages you will find yourself addicted lol.


thanks for the compliments

The Ranger lights are freaking awesome! They look bland on the truck, but set these cars OFF!

yeah its always been a car I wanted and my next bigger project is a subaru engine swap into it.

[daniel_cogar]

got a few little things done today, rear shock mounts installed and bolted down. installed new wiper motor and adjusted wiper blades, bolted down column plastic and installed quick release hub and steering wheel. mounted horn and wired it up. wired up my third brake light in my rear wing. Also painted my ignition coil bracket, and bolted up the coil. I'm slowly making progress and more and more I'm thinking about turbocharging it on min boost untill I can afford a MS. Id be using a bp ecu, gtx injectors which i think are 330cc, and I have a td05 14b and a Holset hx35w. still learning about turbo stuff. Let me know what ya think would be the best way to go.

[bhazard]

I wouldn't bother boosting on NA stuff. It'll never seem *right* and too easy to blow it up due to improper fueling.

I have a SAFC2 piggyback if you're interested at all... but it'll take a chunk out of your MS budget.
