All the talk of race cars I figured I would corrupt your thread with my new project. Sorry!! Just picked it up last Saturday. Long term( 3-5 yr) track car project. Building what I consider the "ultimate track FD". 93' SS touring or base model to start life. I am throwing it on the frame rack to check everything out and fix if needed. Then it comes back for a loong rest while I aquire a seat and steering column and rack in preperation for a mac-daddy cage. Mean time I will be removing sound deadner with Dry ice and a BFH!

Here are some cramped garage shots of the new 7. It came with no hood,front or rear bumper, and broken hatch glass. NOTHING on the inside. Damage to the passenger side in front of the rear tire. Possible frame damage but not bad IMO. Nothing a pro can't fix. The car was getting picked up by a scrap metal yard and I "saved" it. 1 mans junk is another mans treasure.

The best part was how much.. I guess with trailor rental and the 20 bucks for the front fenders I paid...$75.00, for the entire thing!!( It was actually free, but we all know there are NO free puppies)!

and the damaged side: he hit a "mailbox"
