Well im not as far as i wanna be on this one, but im gettin there....
hoping to be able to prime the shell of the car friday night and then start sanding on all the plastic ****, i HATE sanding plastic, wet sand by hand 400 grit for hours on end. if the clear wasnt peeling off it wouldnt be so bad. Im painting it black and its gonna be better than 100% perfect.

its not stock if that counts, balanced, ceramic coated pistons 8.0:1, ACL race bearings, crank turned to give .003" clearence on evrything, rods rezised272 HKS cams,3 angle valve job, extrude hoaned the intake & matched and touched up the head ports, tube manifold from buschur, rebuilt ported and clipped evo 16g, balance shafts ****canned, and im making new 3" stainless exhaust once i get the motor back in.plus all the other crap i already had.nothing too fancy but enough to maybe squeeze 300+ to the wheels eventually and run a good long time still.
the bad part i only have the stock 14b o2 housing, thats a 2.25" outlet [&:]- guess i should add something better to my next list of parts to buy.
im paitning the car all apart, painting the suspension, floor, evrything all seperate, then putting the motor and trans in the shell, then ill put the body back together after i make sure it runs.
were spending the time to make it like a damn show car, but i wont be afraid to drive it.
