heres my winter beater

This is AFTER it was cleaned up pretty good. Its been sitting so long you couldnt even see the paint hardley.


Here are the wheels i got from the junk yard for dirt cheap (the tires are new tho)

You cant really tell, but they were basically a dull white because it was a clear coat aluminum wheel that was soo dirty and faded. They also had some nast curb rash on the wheels that were a 1/4 inch deep on some parts. (not the edge, the actual center part)

Here is a pic with a tad bit of sanding to get some of the really bad rash toned down some......still sad.


Heres an average gash:


Little work....... now i can see myself in that spot.


The whole wheel. Somewhat as good as my eagles.









I have many more updates and pics, but im havign issues getting onto photobucket, so they will be up later.

Very nice upgrade. Wish we had a junkyard around here that allowed for pulling parts.

Ok, imagine two more pics with painted taillights and a painted spoiler:rolleyes:

All together:




You cant tell, but its gloss black with metallic flake on the body pieces.
Still gotta paint the little refletors and repaint the spoiler, i ran out so its on light enough its all rought and kinda dull, but still looks good

Stock airbox, it has about 3 different resonator boxes it goes through and about 4 foot of tubing that wraps around the core support.....:rolleyes:


Some cheap azz $15 go-fast filter and clear coated duct. I didnt have all the tubing i though i had so the stock had to be used for now, imm gonna stick the filter way down low and suck up cool air but for now its just sucking in hot rad air.
