Pics tomorrow I promise, but the first installment of WTF!!!!! is complete. Tomorrow it's off to visit with Derek for an alignment. It has gone from non-running smell turd bag, to shined up, stretched, poked, powder coated turd bag. Plans over the winter are 2.1L 16V high compression N/A stroker, more cleaning, and body work. I'm really working up to the idea of a carbon roof. The rake is a bit much for pictures, but it works in person.

Not gonna lie, As much as I enjoy driving this car, I feel a little gay in it. Not sure why...

 

Last week I was getting a ton of axle bind. Like horrible. It was locking up the drivers wheel going down the road. Typical fixes are aftermarket motor mounts to raise the drive train to reduce the harsh angle of the axles. But then I got to thinking about the shit alignment that was done. So I pulled the angle finder out, ruler and a few tools. I backed off the negative camber from 3.25' to 1.5 and it seems to be all good now.

 

Picked up an aftermarket exhaust Tuesday since whats on there looses a little bit of itself everyday. That and half of it is laying on Henderson somewhere.

 

Perfect opportunity to showcase some more coatings I suppose...
