well im only 16 ive had this car for about a month and a half so i think ive done alot so far. but my plans for now are to put in nice vinyl racing seats, gold t/a rims, electric fan, and maybe some nice valve covers and air cleaner. then i have to start saving to build my 350 and beef up the drive train. And some paint in may when i get it registered. im also gunna get a video so poeple can hear my beautiful exhaust.

i see over it pretty easily because im like 6' 3 so its not a problem. the harness's are mounted to the floor pan with eyebolts and large washers on both sids of the floor pan. the strap that goes over the back of the seat is mounted to the back seat bolt.

thats gonna hurt when you get into a wreck.. i wouldnt run 5 points unless i had a cage.. ive heard alot of bad things happen to people that dont have them properly installed.. like backs breaking and whatever :/ just something to think about.

The black wing is also attacking the hatch on my car!

They crack so easily, Black t/a rims really look good on any thirdgen. Are those american racing wheels that are on there now?

the wing was atcually blue but i sanded most of the paint off because the wing is cracked on the surface. the wheels are 14in american racing rims that were on the car already. i was goinog to buy black t/a wheels but to get them with tire and shipped cost to much right now so i'm going with some $40 black 10 spoke wheels from summit. so i can fit different brakes.
