Dragged the car outta the woods.... 1200mi Drive ahead.

So just got home on Leave after Basic Training AND Tech school at Lackland AFB in TX. Dragged the out and started cleaning it up for my 1200mi drive next week. Finaly finished up my exhaust, and replace my signal bulbs wth silverstars. Just 4 months of sitting outside under some tree's finished off my crappy GM Clear. It was starting to go before I left but now its GONE!

So Winter Project.... Body work and PAINT!

With m exhaust I couldent put my muffler in the OEM location because of my Bag setup (Similar to ESB's old setup) So I had to mount it up under the spare. Tucked in very nice and everyhing seems to work out well. I MAY paint it flat black with high temp paint....

Full exhaust setup consists of a Ceramic Pacesetter 4-1 down into 2.5" mandrell bent piping with a high flow cat and a magnaflow 18x14x4" muffler. Its a it raspy when I lay into it, so I think Ill be getting a nice resonator in the next few weeks.

Yup, I tinted them with the Elastic Epoxy I have. (kinda like vinyl) The locks, handles, and antenna are going when I paint it

Yea Basic was sucky, but not as bad as it could be.

As for the engine, Its still as it was before. I didnt save as much as planned so still no M45, still the ugly ebay intake rigged up to the fully built engine lol.

Still have this though:

The beast is back!!! w0ot, still looks gorgeous even with the clear all gone...also why did you decide on that exhaust set up, turning the muffler like that

There was not enough room in the OEM location due to my bag setup. This was the best way without having to use a fart can.


Also I am moving to Whiteman, AFB (Near Kansas City) Missouri.

Welcome back bro! Glad you made it through basic and ended up keeping the car. I was sorta hoping no one would buy it so you would keep it.

Paint plans are for a Deep Black Base with a HOK Candy red over it(instead of the silver base) Should come out a BLOOD Red, almost black.

Also, its a cell phone vid so it is low res, the exhaust is not as loud as it sounds..

Car looks great and all, but that exhaust setup just isn't sitting well with me. All those fumes are just sitting underneath and doing their best to find a way into the car. You could've put a 90-degree from the muffler out the back of the car and been much safer.

Just my two.

Is a turndown facing the ide just as it would the rear. I was riding wih th exhaust stopping midway next to the spare tire well for 6-7 months, no problems.

But thanks for the concern!
