Memorial day weekend

Follow-up to the Memorial Day weekend:

I have gotten a lot more work finished (front brakes, finding out my wheels don't fit....) but here's some shots of things I was working on during memorial day weekend...


I realize its a rattle-can engine bay, but some of the cracks in the paint here (done at the body shop, not by me) were really starting to tick me off. So i sanded out everything in here flat and started over. Most of this is hidden under decals and the like anyways, but at least there's a flat surface to work with now.


So, here are my springs. "JAMEX" brand. Who knows? they fit, and drop the car waaaaay low, so i'm all for it!


Jamex + Billy's = Fresh, VERY stiff struts!


Subframe install...This is how I left things on Memorial day before I went in to work. Its all in and buttoned up (except for the safety wire on the struts) so as soon as I figure out how to get my damn wheels to fit, we'll be ground-ward bound!


Yes, its krinkle red. It actually looks pretty cool with the krinkle black valvecover. I'm undecided whether or not i'll keep this though...


More to come, I just need to take more pictures of all this stuff i'm doing.
