New pics of the beater, and the fire progress
Thursday, April 27, 2006 4:59 PM
So I bought a new beater, a 91 Celica STX 5spd, Fun little car and yes I have plans for it.

I have made progress on the fire although You may not be able to tell, not much Vizual.
I finished makng my new front air clinder mounts done and Im putting that together on the firs this week, also got my HID's Sorted out and working, Now I just gotta find the harnesses for the Auto Level and turn signal bulbs. The car will be ROLLING OUT of the shop in 2 weeks right before HIN CHARLOTTE NC, I am having the back glass Pulled and washing it off, also taking some in-progress hot-bods pics with a few girls
Also I got the FIberglass TOnnue Cover and Sub box/amp rack done in the Eclipse I gotta get pics still!
Also I had a long talk with a guy at the DMV. Turns out my sunfire is no longer a Sunfire, or even a pontiac for that matter. My Make and Model is now "Home Built", what this means for inshurance I dont know yet....


Heres some shots:

2" drop:

And a quick Photoshop of what it will look like in 2-3 weeks:


and the "HomeBuilt":




Next Purchase for the Celica will be a new Headunit
Next Purchase for the Fire will be the new trunklid, Intercooler and Piping.



Enjoy!

Why is there a shopping cart in your garage with no wheels? Are you tearing THAT apart too? Good god man.

Good luck with everything. I'm starting to wonder if the fire will ever be done...

seems to be that your gettin side tracked ALOT, your helping/working on your friends cars, and your MODDING your beater? All the while your car is gettin FURTHER AND FURTHER from being finished, In my opinion, LEAVE YOUR BEATER A BEATER, let your friends rides wait until your car is ATLEAST drivable, then help them out.

That way your FIRE will be finished sooner, and you will more than likely BE HAPPY, you beater should be for winter, and you should be enjoying your summer car about now.

I'm pissed that I'm driving my 95 GTP still, but it is my fault for not working on my car lately, but I'm in high gear now, and I miss it.

Bottom line, make your car your 1st priority, then after you done buy a new headunit and toys for the beater.
