Part 2
Maybe you have seen the original videos:
Story be told, I was playing on the street with a busa and lost control at high speed and smacked a wall. Luckily the car was paid off and everything worked out for me. Afterwards I thought about just quiting everything all together and getting rid of everything and calling it a day. I figured now was the best time to do it. After think about it for a month or so I decided to put it back together. I found a shell here on honda-tech in san diego and bought it. A couple things were ruined in the wreck of course and are going to need to be redone but thats ok, well get it taken care of. When I got the shell in I noticed im in for some work with this thing. It was a theft recovery so the title was non repairable. I decided, no more street for me. I’m gonna keep this car strictly on the track. Here’s the pics of the car when I picked it up[LEFT]Read more at http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2778930&kcplink=1

The interior was all gone, wires cut everywhere, brake lines cut, no wheels/tires, missing steering wheel, no rear end, no motor, no tranny. The paint was a beautiful color untill really inspecting it. They painted the door jams but not the engine bay. Well they didnt sand the car before they painted it imola orange. The car was originaly red and the paint was chipping in several places and you could see the red underneath. I didnt complain at all though cause the cost of the shell was next to nothing!
Since this car is going to be 100% track and wont see any street, I decided to do whatever I needed to do to make the thing fast. Secret Services has made a GM Adapter plate and torque converter to convert the car over to a automatic. To go along with the automatic transmssion I sold my Inline Pro rear end setup and went to a Strange 9 Inch. The car is now having a 4 link built in with a wishbone and anti roll bars. The car has willwood brakes setup on it as well.
Watt’s assembled the short block and head for me.
