I used to think I disliked fresh paint and clean engine bays. I have come to realise I dislike slow faggot cars with fresh paint and clean engine bays.

Props.

Re: Some Progress
 

SO ur really going to dislike this car :X But as long as i hit a low 11 and get it done before BOTI id be happy

Re: Some Progress
 

Nice ----, I wish I had a car with fresh paint sometimes...

Re: Some Progress
 

bah. fresh paint sucks. then your worried about where you park, how clean it is, the neighborhood faggot who lets his kids toss a ball into your car, etc.

looks like you have a lot of work ahead of you.

Re: Some Progress
 

NO i bought the car from a towing auction for $200 and sold the wheels that were on it for $200 so i got a free shell. Some ricer owned it before all that ---- will be painted black before i drive it ;)

Re: Some Progress
 

id leave it red just for the ricer look. Then smoke some mo fos

Re: Some Progress
 

Im taking a week off from work to make sure i get this thing done for BOTI 8)

Re: Some Progress
 

Was the towing auction a local little one or a national one. I have had good luck with the locals

Re: Some Progress

Re: Some Progress
 

I should take some pics of how I do it. I cut a crank off welded a 2" square tube to is so i can put it in the vice then i tq the flywheel and PP to that then I cut a imput shaft and welded a Nut to that. I have a TQ wrench at work that goes up to 600ftl LBS

Re: Some Progress

Re: Some Progress
