Title: the demon lives
Post by: Clayton on April 20, 2008, 11:48:54 PM
Well, i finally got tired of looking at my bird sitting in the garage....

I needed to put the new quadrant in it.... i did, I put the old rear springs back in until i get some CHE lowers.

I threw the battery in it and to my pleasure it cranked right over like it usually did..  and lets hope that by thursday i can have some pics of my newfound demon


Thanks to Thundr306 in which i owe $5 lol

well now, i took this thing for a spin today, new METAL quadrant and adjustable cable and boy oh boy. i left a 40' black mark on ACCIDENT. The old girl needs a bath and some problems traced, other than that.... if you own a SO 5.0 know how to drive stick and dont have one.... shame on you. the car is tons beyond tons more responsive than it ever was. it used to take some time to get up to 70 mph... now im hitting it at mid 3rd.

oh yeah, and a little project i have goin.....
