Scraped allot of overspray off the car. Previous owner rattlecanned it baby blue and didnt tape anything off. I sprayed it flat black but read how to roll it on. Almost done with the green paint, 1 more coat.

This Friday Ill be ordering Corksport SS Braided oil cooler lines and SS Braided brake lines. I def need to get a shift knob as the cheapo pep boys one doesnt fit. After the brake work Ill be saving up for a suspension and I wanna get an LSD in the rear. Once the car has the suspension Ill start to save for a rebuild.
