Disaster struck, and my savegame got corrupted, so excuse any slight differences not explained.
 I visited my friends shop today, and he helped me with some stuff on the car. First he let me test fit some 17 inch rims on the car to see how wheel fitment was going to be. The rear fender fit fine, but the front fender rubbed way too much, so we took a piece of tubing and rolled the fenders out to fit the wheels. I really like the A-Tech Battle MB's he let me borrow, i think i might get these when the time comes to get rims, maybe in chrome though.  After wrenching for a bit we headed off to the local swap meet which is why i was visiting. I managed to find some cool finned valve covers by Moroso for $150. Swap meets are the best for cheap parts. New valve covers meant relocating the coil packs, so i mounted them under the exhaust manifolds on either side.  Now how i got the paint job was through my friend. He offered to paint the car for the deep corn purple steering wheel and the bride seat that came with the car. I asked if he would throw in his old 240 seat and wheel so i could drive it when i finally got it running and he agreed. The paint is still drying so i havent worked on the car since then.  Btw, i started printing my own stickers in the shop. This is the first one i made as a test, i think it came out well. its cool to get to create your own designs and be able to use them on the car.  Excuse the floating window, top secret government experiment  Starting V$: 13,450
Valve covers: -$150 Final V$: 13,300 |
