Wiped off the sawdust, barely started after sitting 2 months. Pumped up the tires, took her for a spin. Thinking seriously about supercharging it, too.

working on top secret MP90 project, trying to stay under $2600 for basic cost of material. But have to relocate battery, or try one of those racing-type batteries. If it works, anyone will be able to do it, but we'll see.

FINALLY cleaning it up after this lousy winter.
Washed and detailed.
Rocker guarded the bottoms of the doors, inside and outside.
Prepping and painting the upper portion of the back of the trunk.(bad rust/paint chipping) and then painting over the rocker guard when it dries.
The paint doesn't match quite perfectly, but it's matched to my VIN for the colour. Looks much better than rust IMHO.

Ahhhh good times with those bolts....the one on the front right bottom is a BITCH.....gotta use a short bolt and you need some certain type of attachment for your ratchet in order to tighten it because you CAN NOT get a wrench in there....and we had the engine out when we put the headers on....lol....i can't imagine doing it with the engine in. Good luck!
