Default Another project complete.







Remind me to not do this again. The rear end of this car fought me the entire way. The diff pin broke, hammer, drill, punch, chisel for 4 hours, and it all comes apart, then the rear calipers AND slider brackets were seized, as were the e-brake cables. The car stops flat now, but I need almost every parking brake cable for it now.

These wheels are the same ones I had on the gray TC. I had some left over paint and clear, cleaned em up, taped em and sprayed em. I didn't do a great job, but these wheels aren't permanent. I have something else up my sleeve.

Looks good. Got some bigger wheels/and or some springs in mind to hunker it down a little bit more to fill the gap?

As for power, about 12 to the wheels. The clutch is so bad in it, that none of the power makes it to the ground. I just havnt felt like dropping the exhaust, and dropping the transmission again. I have a clutch, but no motivation.

If I took everything out of the trunk, the car would level out. I've got some much stuff back there that it makes the car sit funny. I'm not going to lower it or anything, costs money that I dont have. I'm just putting on parts I've had laying around, and stuff from previous projects.

It's not as clean as it looks, but it's far nicer than my gray one was.
