I Bought A Project Car


yep, just paid for it today. the price was way too good to turn down. it's the straightest 1993 notchback i've ever seen. it's a 4 cylinder, but that will definitely change. i've got big plans for it and i plan to keep everybody up to date with the progress in the blog. bought it from a guy with a supercharged ranger and an 800hp supercharged z06. part of the deal was for him to take me for a ride in the z06 someday. pics of the new notch to come later when it's delivered to my house...

that too

i still haven't decided if i want to make it a track only car, street car, street/strip car, or what. the things at the top of my list are 408 with nitrous, turbo 347, or F2 procharger. i still have plenty of time to think about it since it will be a while before i can afford anything major like that

yep, runs great. starts on the first try every time. i'll take a good video of the 2.3 running so i can show it to somebody if or when i sell the motor.

as far as the color goes, well umm, i guess you'll find out when you see the pics. the paint on it now is all kinds of hideous lol
