Search it out.

I'm anxious to get home and get my hardline in red and the other two wheels and tires on! Then it's rust-free quarter panel weld-in repair time!!! And bolt on the red spoiler i got from Chris and the GL hatch that i have yet to pick up in ARK.

Marcus : Coming up in September I'm calling sick on a monday soon. I'll leave on a friday to be at your house. I have to pull another engine at freds, pick up my welder, and swap your backglass over. While I'm at your house I'd like to grab that K8 transmission from that MX-3 for my V-6 swap if it is still there.

We'll all plan something out soon.

Yeah I was going to bleed the brakes some more before I take it for a drive. Awesome that red's almost ready to hit the road!

Wes is a cool guy! Might make a video of it running if I could borrow a friends camera.. mine doesn't take good videos.. and yes it is VERY close to hitting the road

I just have to get my starting problem figured out, bleed the brakes some more, and bolt the driveplate to the converter.
