    I like it a lot,especially that grill painted the body color.The only thing I would change on the outside would be the rear quarters.And those should be out in April(maybe).Did you get a good deal on it?

    It will need quarter panel skins and a grill and bumper if I want to take it back stock appearance outside.  I thought year one made the quarter skins?  The thing I am not sure about is the nose.  The fenders are steel but the glassed the nose to the rest of the car and the grill.  I think I am going to have fun with this one !   :burnout:

    Are you going to make it into a Pro Street or keep it as a race car? Fill us in on all the details about the running gear. This looks like it's going to be fun!! :bananasmi :bananasmi

    I am probably going to play with it as is for a while and then Pro Street it.  The motor is strong and is supposed to be an 440 w/12.5 compression motor and about an 11.3 second car.  It runs very well...It has a spool in it (don't know the gears yet) and I'll probably swap that out fairly quickly.   I just wanted something I can play with tear up the track and have some fun with.  I might keep the flares...it's kinda growing on me...but not sure yet.  Only time will tell where this goes.  It has not working lights so I'll need to address that first before it goes on the street..

    It does also have ladder bars and coilovers in the rear.  The guy I bought it from was wrong..but that's okay. Set it and forget it...
