i think for auto cross he would need to pul the vinyl and put real welds in place of the crap used in the seams for the roof... i remember the toll it was taking on Mike's waggin'.... now Vicky needs power upgrades... better start getting stuff for an HO conversion or a Explorer swap.... you have handling... now you need the power and the brakes

Actually, I do. Enough that it'll chirp the tires now lol. The sway bars really help in the turning. It's a completely different car.Originally posted by Brown_Muscle View PostComment

I hope the tire chirping stays but it just may be due to the weather.~David~

You'll begin to find that the turbines and whatever tires you got on there will not like the extra torque.

Not for me. But I read that they had already got a bumper. Was for trade for HO parts. And yes I need a new hood deperately, a good shape one.Comment
