My project is almost complete (56k no!)
 
Well, long story short, I had a 79 with a good engine and bad body, then got a 82 with a great body and bad engine. Swapped engines, and added a few goodies while it was out.

Here is the car finally at the house. Washed a few days ago. One thing you cant see from these pictures is that i hae 3 tiny rust bubbles on the rear fender arch.

Rear View. Bad tinting job which I plan on removing, and no, I do not go to WCU :p

Here is the interior. I do not know if there is a panel that covers the wiring under the dash (is there?). The car had cruise which got removed, and currently has keyless entry. I still have to tidy up the wiring. The small switch near the trunk release is my fuel pump switch.

Gotta love the backseats and their uselessness/novelty

Current engine shot. Runs PIG RICH at the moment. Also having timing issues. But it is one hell of a screamer!

My brake coolers (not hooked up yet, need a front air dam) and 1 inch spacers. The car couls not take a turn without these as it hit the sway bar! Now it will only hit it when I make a turn while flying through the air not touching the ground. Needless to say, never.

My exhaust, minus the Borla Pro XS presilencer. The pipes are Racing Beat's 2.5 inch 4 footers. Thickest exhaust piping I have ever seen! And yes, those are my racing shoes. Haha.
