It runs good, its all stock with an AOD. When i got it, it needed Windshield , water pump , radiator , temp switch , smog and reg. and a fuel sending unit. Its been a good daily driver since i fixed all that. it just looks terrible and is super slow! haha. I have a whole bunch of parts sitting in the basement ( semi-built motor , tranny , cobra brakes , black int etc) that i will eventually put into it. But for now i just wanna finish the bodywork , get it painted and install some headers and mufflers. Oh and a 5-speed conversion and get the a/c going. I wanted to make a thread to document the progress so here it is.<br /><br />Here are some pictures so you guys can see how raggetty it looks right now haha<br /><br /> <img src="http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd262/78mali/DSC07241-1-1.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /><br /> <img src="http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd262/78mali/DSC07250.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /><br /> <img src="http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd262/78mali/DSC07243.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /><br />Got the stock radio and EQ still!..
