My new project...

After spending countless hours and dollars on a Honda Civic I decided to get away from imports, and go for domestic muscle. I sold the car for $11,500 after spending $5000 on mods and $12,400 on the car itself. I took $2000 and bought an 87 TransAm. This car was needing a caring owner. The original engine burnt to a crisp. The tires were crap. The interior was, well mostly there to say the least. This car was well "used". It did have a nice straight body, and T-Tops. This was a great thing. I have begun on the task of restoring this car. My goal is to have a 10 sec. car that looks and drives like brand new. Fortunately, with this car, unlike the Civic, spending $5000 will do a lot more than take a second off my e.t. With the right amount of patience, and a whole lot of loot, I know this car will be all that I have dreamed of. Just can't wait to get out there and kick the crap out of some mustakes, oops, I mean mustangs!
