    Worked on the comet, got the 289/c4 ready to remove... Going to throw my 302/tci c4 in, it's been sitting on the floor way to long and the Gabber is not ready for it...

    Didn't get anything done yet but when I looked at her sitting in the garage I immediately got the itch to buy it some bling. Ordered some front rims(prostars),a set of caltracs, and some QA1's. Hoping to pick up in the 60foot. Now i just need some ambition.

    So, am I understanding correctly that you do these insane reinventions of your car all the time without a garage, on gravel?

    I was thinking the same thing every time I look at his project thread. No walls, no floor, on gravel. I hate just changing a tire in gravel. But he built a car and painted it.

    And then he built it again...... and again........ and again...................
