she's gettin old, some rust starting in places that i don't feel like trying to replace anymore. on the upside......
new struts
new strut mounts
new driver side wheel bearing
new driver side ball joint
two new tires up front
new sway bar end links up front
and now the vibrations that made the car feel like it was going to fall apart doing any more than about 60 have disappeared. so i'm pretty happy about that. from here on out modding is pretty much done (not that there was any ever extensive modification to it in the first place but...)
so these may be the last pictures i post of her on here, i'm really happy with the way it drives, looks, and performs at this point. last thing i'll be doing is replacing the annoying ass cherry bomb on it and maybe just maybe, throwing a dynomax with a "turn up" tip on it that comes out the side like the old moab concept.......
c+c welcome, and just wanted to thank everyone on here for making this an awesome forum, and an awesome place that i learned alot about vehicle modification from. i've had a ton of fun with this old p.o.s.
where did you get the roof rack?
Pieced it together from eBay auctions
should of kept that super turbo you sold me.

yeah I'm kinda kickin myself on that one lol
tim transporter would be proud of that exhaust!!!
lol looks good man.
factory tip but hold it and weld it on by yourself while the car is on an alignment rack, nd the parts shop gave yah an offset-offset muffler instead of offset-center with too big of an inlet dia., gives a nice little upturn look without being gaudy imo. (see picture lmao)
believe it or not that's lowered on sport-lines, you should lower yours too! if yah feel like sinking more money into it
also, park it in a walmart parkin lot for a day, the swipes and scratches will give your car an "on a mission" look, like mine
No drop planned.
Like I said maybe a side exit exhaust and a 3 piece spoiler but honestly I doubt even that stuff'l happen there's just too much other stuff I should b sinking money into
thanks for the positive comments guys
Judging by ur sig ofcoarse your going to have rust sometime.
GMR has got nothing on this
I dig the bronze on the wheels and the roof rack.
Its sad when the rust starts. I noticed it on mine the other day. Tis the beginning of the end.

Hey, mine didn't stick out that far, lol
I was just trying to fit waaaay to big of a muffler under there.
Paying someone to install parts and bragging about it being fast, is like watching someone bang your wife and being proud to raise their kids.
I don't like the roof rack as it's too 'me too' in it's approach. If you actually use it for its intended purpose then more power to you.
So you're giving up on the old girl too I see. Time to move on with something else or you going the route of the family man with something more sedate?
I can understand the sentiment. I'm pretty much there myself with the 'blu sitting in storage not getting a second look at the moment. Such is life and I never thought I'd see the day where it would be left out of my life with all that's been done to it over the years. Maybe if it were a stick instead of the auto I'd be more inclined to driving the car but auto's suck and my other two are stick which are much more fun to drive.
Keep her clean and in running condition and she'll serve you well until it's that time for her to meet her maker. Best of luck with it.

Thank you Dave and JBO! 
Thank u James for the comments.
First, no I'm absolutely not done with her, just no more "mods"
second, the rack is completely functional, pics will b up soon if I really need to prove it
third, I love the auto, not only do I dd my car but it's basically my mobile office so the auto is extremely beneficial in my case
again thanks James
Cool. Good to see you still enthusiastic about the ride but an auto? Ewwww. lol
Sorry but I've got to row the gears to enjoy the drive, even in day to day commute with traffic jams.
Anyway, good luck with her, and good to know you're actually using the roof rack as most don't since it's a 'me too' mod that is all too common nowadays.

Looks good...kind of what I had for mine if I grab another sedan.
Also one of the main reasons I hate the rustbelt...
if anyone's interested in the rack pm me it's for sale.
