It was sweet car, but I bought it that way, and I kept getting " oh you built this??" to which I had to reply "no :-/" So I got sick of It and got rid of it. Here's a photo gallery to drool on:

I told ya in all those PM's patience, and put the time into doing things right. If you rush or half ass it that's exacty what you'll have... A half ass car. Your will get there. If you want bags then your in the right place The 3 wheel is only possible if you put two corners up and 2 down and then gun it while taking a turn. Bags WILL NOT do 3 wheel standing,

How did you manage to do that without embedding the exhaust pipes in the ground?

I think I can ass up my own thread if I want too. I'd like to learn transmissions myself. All my car knowledge is self taught (minus the basics tuneup/brakes [thanks Dad ]) So the more you do the easier it gets. Your right it's really hard on a daily driver. If u f it up you might miss work or cause more repairs (i know all about it) lol.

Drag the pipes Till they wear though and sit flush with the ground Not like the wagon where I ripped the whole exhaust off LOL! Pics were taken by previous owner. I never found anyone to take pics of me driving it. First thing I did when I got the car was rip the cadillac sticker outta the window. I loved driving this this. S'why im super excited about my 96, it will be 10 times what this car was.
