    we went base coat/clear coat this time...its really shiny :cool:
    not sure what else he needs to do with it before he gives it back to me :huh:
    Going to order my slicks today. I need to talk to the guy the rebuilt my alternator....seems its a little different now:hmmm: but I am hoping to have it back on the street in a couple weeks :bananaman I am going to put the exhaust back on it and leave it on this time. It really kills the low end torque, but enough of that loud stuff :D

    well I went and played with the car today. Put the new(rebuilt) altenator on it, put the exhaust on it and set the valve lash.

    Also picked up the new slicks.
    Should get the car back to me this weekend or the first of next week.:bananaman
