I completely understand that. I stopped updating my Cardomain years ago.

I was trying to figure out why a lot of the pics I originally posted and then I realized I hosted them on cardomain and have since deleted that hahaha

I'll try to stay more up to date on here moving forward though. My mods seem to come in spells though with long periods of no modding therefore there is little to update.

Whenever you get around to it. We love to see the pictures of what you accomplish.

Then you are in luck and or plan better then most as they sit on Jackstands forever awaiting dreams. I think the step mods are much more enjoyable or enjoyable at all because you can drive it.

As much as I would love to rip the car apart and do a full restoration & monster build all at once, I know that really isn't a realistic option for me as the car would be forever on jackstands too. The year and a half the car sat while I saved for an engine rebuild & port work (& the time is was being worked on) was torture! I don't want massive down time like that again! I've done a lot of reading and looking over other builds. I have come up with a HP# goal that I'd like to get to and I want a fun streetable, auto x, track day, & weekend fun car........ Only reason for massive HP#'s would be for bragging rights & I'm fine knowing there are faster cars than mine. The winters here in PA can be messy and once we get snow (& then salted roads) I park my RX for the winter and that allows me about 3 months to accomplish mods and/or maintenance w/o losing driving time.

I did some cruising around with a buddy & his beast today.

Oh and GySgtFrank, I was looking at your SA build last night and WOW! Your fab work looks amazing.

Thanks, she's sitting forlorn and reproachful in the shop until I can get the money together to build a turbo engine for it.

The MG Midget decided that it needed attention and wouldn't take no for an answer.

Isn't funny how cars get jealous when you spend more time working on the other one!?

Eh, no biggie. It's more important to have fun with it.
