Default rebuild begins....

finally i have almost everything i need to rebuild my car. it took me quite a while to gether all the turbocharge stuff to welding machine and stuff...
i still need few more stuff left but it's going to take me a while to finish my sc so im going to start rebuild the car.
here is the list of stuff i have to do....
check whole body and chasiss. i have over 200k miles on it so i think it is time for me to check all the bushings and stuff.
stitching weld and considering rollcage...
rebuild motor with block that has 20k miles on...
refinish interior and seats...
toss out the cracked body kit and put bomex full kit on...
some body work and fresh new paint.
and turbo kit and tunning...

i think that's about it... lol that's lot a work but it's fun to work on cars so i really don't care.... and most of the work i'm going to do it so it will save lots of money for me....
i already spent 20k for my wedding that's comming up this sunday so i have empty pocket on me...
i'll post watever is done to the car and wat will come up next...

hey man, re-doing the car completely is sometimes the only way to go about things...this project looks like it's going to be FUN.

I hope you can enjoy your wedding/honeymoon first...then let the modding begin.

If you need help, you got a bunch of socal boys behind you.
