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



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.

Nice car man, looks sweet!

Haha, those back seats are totally designed for little asian kids, who else could fit in them properly?
