The time has come to park the SVT and begin the build. She served me well through the last three years as a daily, and the miles are starting to show. I love driving this car, so I plan to resto the body, and build the suspension and engine. Hopefully a rebuild thread will be in the making shortly. 60-70 hr weeks leave little free time for the vehicles.

On to the new ride. 2002 Bonneville SSEi. I picked her up in Gulfport, the car is from FL, and the PO had shipped the car to ZZP in MI for the engine build/tune. 132k on the body, 9k on the drivetrain. The DD tune put down 338hp/435ftlbs at 13psi on a Mustang Dyno. The car needs a bit of work: sagging headliner, yellowed headlights, and the paint needs a good claybar and waxing. Besides that, the PO had one helluva good car that he parted with. Time for picture whoring:

Those are pretty cool. Quick and understated. I think it would look better without the hood scoops and fender vents though.
 
Thanks Trevor! We've got a long tunnel down here, and I can't wait to hear the SVT growl going through it. Ooops! GF is mad at me for spending too much on on CEG again. :help::laugh:
