Quote: is the car jacked up in that pic?
i know the lack of engine makes the front a good bit higher, but i dont recall the rear being that high...

nice build tho, i like the wheel choice
Car is definently not on jacks...Could be the angle.

Quote: nice work man. how much did that patch harness run ya? is it fron phoenix tuning?

Nope ordered it one day, and came two days later. No sending in your old harness, I was very surprised as to everything plugged right in. No complaints at all.

lol i saw your add @ craiglist selling your seats, i was just thinking who would wna buy those, now you have your interior pic posted, the previous guy obviously didnt care about his interior huh? You can get tan e brake boot on ebay for about 20 bucks
tan steering wheel should be pretty easy to find, you might even consider an upgrade to the three spoke one, but finding the matching airbag is the hard part
