So Bill (WE3RX7) has been on me to make a build thread about my project so here we go. Bill I need some pictures of progress if you still have them lol

I bought the car in Feb. 08 for $1200 it was in pretty good shape no rust and 65k on her, and missing the LE wheels. Latter on Brian (Bigpimpin) hooked me up with a RB intake/Holley and header so I started to tear into it In process of that I also picked up and new ACT HD street/strip clutch from ebay and a techna fit braided clutch line. I had issues with the tune and getting the omp set right and ruined at set of plugs and got pissed up. Not to mention I ended up having ignition issues and found a bad J109

So the LE sat for a while and I collect my thoughts on this, and it got the best of me I started to nit pick and tore the engine bay apart due to a stain left by a leaking windshield washer tank. So that's how it sat until just this week! I forgot to mention I got real lucky again and picked up a set of near mint LE wheels from Brian for a trade of GS cross wheels with fresh tires, but they were powder coated red

So I moved the car from my parents house in BFE to my shop in Manassas, and decide to finish what I started 3 years ago.
