Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
So basicall this bitch is back on the road and ready for the good times to start rollin'. Not having a car to drive lately nearly sent me off the deep end but I kept it together and it's real nice to drive again.
I have a lot of wonderful cell phone pictures of the last week or two leading up to the car running (which is basically when I started working on it lol). She runs like a raped ape but needs some shizz, Like.....
-A really thorough WASHING
-To mount my sparco
-ALIGNMENT
-Rear to arms, since my shit is wack for some reason
-Diff mount (broke it at dirt drop city, TN)
-Steering angle
-Roll cage
-Install motor mounts, get trans mounts and install at same time
-Lots of small adjustments and tweaks
But yeah she rips and although there is a lot of major and lesser work to be done, i'm super excited to get it sorted and really start shredding. Gawd it feels good to have turbo FC again. I feel pretty lucky in the fact that the car ran solid all day, totally problem free at its FOERST event and can't wait to do another shakedown. Just really gotta focus on getting the car caged by like february so I can jam out with all my homies runnin tandem. But before I can do that I have to keep my word to dustin (whom sold me the car) and take care of some stuff. I'd also like to thank Dustin, for letting me get this car isntead of some idiot that probably would have crashed it or blown it up. Also wanna thank Thomas Blanton, my good friend whom made getting this car running the way it does possible, and for my awesome killer dog that they gave me earlier this year.
More pictures and documentation coming soon
