93NotchLX approved

Did you use Eastwood's PRE first? http://www.eastwoodco.com/jump.jsp?i...emType=PRODUCT
What about SEM Plastic Adhesion Promotor? (SEM 39863) http://www.azautobodysupply.com/sem39pladpra.html

What we are starting with is a '88 LX 5.0 shell originally from Nevada. He picked it up from Pro2000GT before the snow flew this last fall or whenever.

The plans for the car are:
-stock 5.0 5 speed
-speed density for now
-titanium frost paint or whatever the fuck its called
-5 lug swap
-'96 cobra wheels
-black interior
-lowering springs
-subframe connectors

So far, this is where we are at. We are building the engine and putting the interior together. Since this started without any interior, we are sourcing parts from our t-boned parts car, once again thanks to pro2000gt for that, and dying the pieces black.

The only other update before we get to the pics is that we now have the front fenders, front bumper, hood, rear bumper, both tail lights, and drivers door on the car.

anyways, onto the pics.

The car:


Engine bay that we painted black


Interior with the brand new black carpet laid in it(ala 50 resto black interior kit)

Thats where my old car went. I think the engine bay was already black. The rear end should have a 3.27 and a posi in it already.

The engine bay was already black, but it was flaking off like none other, and the paint was getting pretty dull. Everything was out and it was too easy to do.

And your old car has a great owner now. Its getting a full rebuilt with all new parts or reconditioned old ones. If you stop out at porkies this summer you'll be able to see it in person.
