yup

Hmmm... Now im gonna be nervous and think about this all day. I really like the car though. And the mods done to it are :drool::drool:.

That tranny is solid. That is always the part I would worry about most. Engine = meh. It is a 96 so you can do an easy 3.0L in it if it goes. headers = bonus!
 
crap, left my lights on this morning. DOH! And can I reach the wife to give me a ride home to pick up my battary boster? Nope!
 
A street that is about as flat as it gets. :) And I am parral parked as well. That would be an interesting feat to get out of LOL

:laugh: I almost had to do that once with my old red probe. Parallel parked, fog lights on and at school :blackeye: It wouldn't start when I first cranked it over but I let it sit for a few minutes after turning the lights off and it BARELY started. I was very careful not to stall the car :crazy:

Here's hoping it cleans up to somewhere near this (less the color difference):

I gotta go out and work on the beast today. WP bypass hose is pissing coolant straight out of it and into the fan. :nonono: Dang 20 year old hoses.:laugh:
 
Meh... I think their overrated. :D

I guess I just like the older style better. I can do anything with a pre-98 that I can with an SVT, so meh...

Custom front bumper? :crazy: Those be crazy expensive yo! Then if you get a 3.0L, and you want SVT cams and SVT UIM LIM Fuel Rail.

Then again Pre98's have Rod shifters. :drool: and better seats, and better quality dashs, and better center consol.

Then again changing the bulbs on the head lights is a major pain.
