Comments

I think the only thing I HAVEN'T taken off this car is the gas tank, and the rear axle.
This the most expensive winter beater ever purchased.. Started out as a $500 teal VL with 80K miles.
$8800 total involved :-x ($5800 of my money, lol)
"It's not perfect, but I did it all myself (except exhaust), with the help of my father, Jeff, and my girlfriend."
Thanks to Ginobeats for the 3.1l.
Thanks to Felix Auto Collision in Fall River for fixing my blizzard incident..
