Originally posted by pole120:I've changed my mind on the no-whoring till after SZ since i didn't get 60% of the ish done that i wanted to(mostly the highly custom stuff). Car was totaly stock when i bought it, i drove it 15 miles, parked it, and ripped it apart. I had to rush the car into daily service from a stripped shell when i totaled my SE . Spent a total of about 180 hours working only fri-sun in about a month and an half with the help of a very good friend. I got many of my mods done in the process but theres some things that just had to waite. I'll be posting more pics and my current mod list(ever growing) within the week.
I'm happy with where the car is at given the circumstances, however i had so much more in mind that the car's progress is still a bit of a disapointment for me personally.
