If you lived near me, I'd have you working. There's a LOT of work in construction/ remodeling here.

The car's looking like a car now. Your doing a good job.
Did I see some tubing laying under your car? SFCs?

hahah that the body trim!! Yea im working pretty steady with my grandfather, and on a farm(both ten a hour in cash so not bad)
Would be ncie to have steady work, I dont mind being a grunt, i perfer it over fast food and  so its working out. Hav been doing LOTS of mechanic work on the side, lots of friends cars, and there familes always come to me first cause I can do it, and I am cheap. It all works out good! Plus if i need more tools, they buy!!
I need to fix some lights, a little body work, the exhaust, bleed the brakes, go over the front end and tighten everything up one last time to be sure I didnt miss anything, and some odds and ends and shes ready to go!! Wont have a radio or anything like that but o well, the 5.0 plays some really loud music right now!!

what I need to find is a batery saw to cut the wheel well out of the junkyard car for mine, rear quarters would be nice too. Got to go see if the car has been crushed yet tomorrow, grab the gt40 heads and some parts of the car if its still there, including the TB and EGR spacer so I can port match it, and mod the explorer TB to work in my car.

Need some opinions guys about tires
what should I do? I would like to put some GOOD rubber on it, possibly something like the z rated cooper cobras I have on the wheels.
17x8.5 inch wheels. I have NO clue about tires any help is good, cause I think the tires it has are gonna fail big time, they have next to nothing for tread, and are dry rotted. My stockers failed inspection too so I cant use those.
When i get new ones there will be burnout vids, I promise that much!

Found a set of chrome tail pipes for 50 bucks on craigslist Im gonna buy them and use them to finish off my exhaust. Still have to decided if im going out the side or the back
50 bucks I cant pass them up, cheaper then buying tips
http://providence.craigslist.org/pts/692885246.html
Think now if these work out pretty good, MIGHT attempt to do the exhaust myself. Need to get some flux wire, and some cut off wheels.

out the sides after the rear wheels though is what I was thinking. Looks good on these cars I think. I will figure it out once i get these pipes.
Would have liked to do a bigger tip but 50 bucks for both whole pipes in chrome I cant pass it up
