Long awaited update(It's been months now! Yikes!)
So... My original post said I was getting a new engine; that fell through the floor. I managed to pick up an engine in Pennsylvania, though. Rebuilt with a measly 500 miles on it. Sounds like a deal to me! Haha.
Over the past couple months, I've gotten the original engine/transmission off the subframe(Redneck style, again...), and started work on getting the new shell painted; I stripped down, cleaned, and totally repainted the subframe. Looks brand spankin' new! I've got some new parts in.
Anyway, here are some pictures of where we are at:
Like I said, a little redneck, since the current engine hoist is holding something that I find to be worth a bit more money. =P
And the beast is finally out of the garage! She's no longer a total jackstand queen!
(Excuse my rather rude thumb. =P)
Redone subframe. =)
15G's:
Sexy custom leather for the seats:
M2 Exhaust:
MAFT-PRO with all the sensors for Speed Density:
Gauges, gauges, gauges!
