Just a small update.
After waiting for about 10 months, my car is finally getting its engine put back in. Before anyone asks, the reason being, that the mechanic is just really reallllly slow haha. Anyway, just thought I'd get out from under the rock I've been living under and post up a pic of it waiting to get the engine back in. Hopefully next week I'll have it sittin in my driveway again so I can move on to getting the brakes done
Everyone keep your fingers crossed for me!
Its about time!!!!
Pics of the front wheels that came in already?
wtf....10 months?!?!? Is your mechanic a quadraplegic?
darren...they are sittin in my house right now. I'm gonna wait til the car comes home before I get the tires switched over, then the old 20s are going to the girlfriend to put on her sunfire.
Do you have pics of your girlfriends ride? I hope it isnt stock if you putting 20's on it, that'd just be ghett-ohhhhhh.
I see, what brakes set up are you putting on after the heart?
by the time the wheels go on the car it wont be close to stock. Shes got a basement full of parts waiting to go on and lots of stuff also on its way.
I'll wait until the deal goes through before I say what they are, just in case it falls through and I end up getting something else. I'm doing 12s all around, even though the 22s will make the 12s look tiny in the rear still haha
Haha for sure, but still better than stock! Looking forward to see it all together and done! Good luck!
Fingers have been crossed since day one Jeffy.
keep me updated bud.
Pfft, who needs brakes on a car that will never move?
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
... I shouldn't talk, I know Jeffy
Rims looks great!
Awsome buddy, keep us posted. Those rims look so much better one there man.
Isaak, I'm just trying to get my stuff done before yours is. haha Actually it made me laugh a lot when people were complaining that my car sucked cause it needed big brakes when it actually needed an engine more.
I have ALOT more to do than you do, so if I get mine done before yours, you are in big trouble!!
Let me know how the brake thing is going, I hope he doesnt screw you over!
i was just thinking about your car the other day. good to see your still around. I'm looking forward to seeing it all put back together. your old post showing the work done for the rear was kickass.
Can't wait to see it drivable again!
But like I've always told ya.... LOVE IT! Dub Duce's is hot!
Now come tub my 4 door for me
...
Good news. I actually have updates haha. Though I havent been able to get done to the shop, apparently the engine is in the car and pretty much wired back up. They rerouted my computer to go into the driver side wheel tub cap in the engine bay and had to clean up some wiring. In anticipation of my car coming home, I've been working on my seat brackets the last couple days. Though many will probably hate the idea, I'm putting a rear bench seat in the front of my car for that pure old school cali style. I think mini truckers will like the idea more than the tuner crowd. I chopped 4 inches off the back part of the seat and will probably take some pics of the progress on that tomorrow. I've been really slackin on the pics lately cause I've been running around so much doing other things and gettin my other project vehicles looked after
I should have engine pics by the weekend.
How is the other car coming Jeff?
hummm....bench in the front....interesting...not sure on a 2 door...but hell I'm sure you'll make it look pimp regardless
bench seat.... wow.... i like it!
wow the bench idea sounds tight, i think that me and you have the same taste!, and same look!, the mini truck look!. Post some pics. I wanna see this. Car looks amazing by the way!
