Thanks! It was originally red. Then had a shitty black paint job when I got it but needed a ton of body work and the fenders,hood,bumper weren’t painted. Choko took care of all of that and gave it a new coat of black. This winter I am going to spray the engine bay and a few other spots to make it cleaner.

HOT DAMN this car drive sooooo much better now. Not hot at all inside anymore, additional speakers really made a difference in actually being able to hear the music, no longer hear the rear end at all, Only thing that I would change if I could is you still get a bit of exhaust drone. Oh and the interior looks SOOOOOO much better. Rear is now fully carpeted and I took the time to finish the front carpet as well.

Dickbag. You should have at least asked for a reach around. The only reason why I accepted your more than generous offer was the fact we spent ALL DAY getting it back together. Plus, you where more insistant than a Philippino Hooker that does not want to go ATM.

If you need anything else let me know. My services are FOC fggt!

:tup: to CTN for letting us use his stuff. Good guy.

I want to see this thing in action…
