The car should be going in end of january-mid february and be on the road by mid march - april.  I'm probably gonna hold back until atleast april so the rain can wash most of the salt on the roads away...

The wheels are 16's just like the snowflakes but theyre 8 inches wide as oppoesed to the 7 on the stock snowflakes...


The car has 197000KM on it (thats like what? 80000Miles?) but it's never seen a winter and was always undercoated. Everyone knows how our cars love to rust, especially underneath.  Yet I've seen 05 mustangs that looked worse on the bottom then this one...  Its already got a full pioneer sound system (all speakers changed over) with an amp going to each of the 2 12' subs in the trunk...  Everything on this car works, EVEN THE AC!  I was driving it late one night when I first got it and that just blew my mind...  The only thing is I just can't stand the 4bangers...  After the hell I went through trying to get the old Turbo Coupe engine to work in my last one I figured screw the headache I've already got the V8 might aswell save some cash and do the conversion...  Best part is this thing only costed me 4000$ CDN...  I've seen ones on auto trader that are shiznitty compared to this one that run in the range of 5-11000$ :nkhk: ...  I just cant wait to drop my setup into it...  Here's what it looked like in my old car...  Oh ya...  and for those of you that rememberd my anti K&N rant...  It did have a 3' K&N filter on the carb but my hood wouldnt close...  So I had to go with a cheap 2'

Got my car with under 100km's in the autotrader in north yourk for 2200cdn and other than the paint being faded she was rust free,only seen 2 winters in it's life and won't see another.
Nice car though.
