Looking good with the Cragars. Do you have all 4?

I'm a savage. Ran it through a car wash. Come at me bros. Lol.

Just wanted to get the grim off so I'm not grinding dirt into the paint when I slap the magnetic numbers on this weekend.

So instead you let the brushes at the auto wash grind dirt into the paint for you...?

So you went for the "extra clean scrubbing action" with "free swirl marks"...

I wrote a letter to my senators. We cannot allow this.

Yes, exactly. You get it. Why manually grind in dirt when it can be done automatically.

Plus they match the rock chips from tracking and the chunk of paint I removed swapping street/ track wheels. Anyone know how I can touch that up? Maybe body filler and touch up paint?

Needs more tawr.....eally sweet car.

all the tawr that will fit. Yes to all 4 (AM knock-offs) but owner successfully went for old time drag look.

a built 289 (+.030, roller cam, intake, LT Headers, etc). T5 transmission with 4.11's. Body and interior are excellent. I got it from a close friend of a good friend so I have trust there are no hidden issues. With the cam and the minimal exhaust it has on it it's LOUD. I warned Mrs Mud...so when she wanted to hear it I started it and it settled right into that lopey cammed idle. All was good till I hit the gas and she started backing away from it with fear in her eyes. Orig owner said he kept ear plugs in it for his wife.

put on the new wheels and tires, 255/30/19 up front... still needs a 5mm spacer to be where I want it.

I actually really like this! I dark tinted mine but now I'm thinking red might be the way to go (also DIB gang).



Badgeskins will make a red one for you, just need to specify in the order comments (and then wait a month for it to arrive.)

This is what I have on my car now. I left the reverse lights alone though.

How does it drive? As awful as an old car, or has somebody done some significant work on the suspension?

It was touchless though, right?
