A few new pics of the 86
A few I took today, tried some night shots last night, and none came out.
The car is back together minus a few more parts under the hood, but the engine/5 speed swap was a great success and im loving it!

I think the shifter stick may be too long, may have to shorten it a bit.

I love how low the accessories are on the motor. Clean! Looks real nice, what wheels are those? They look sharp.
Re: A few new pics of the 86
I love the look of that engine bay! And everything else is flawless, too.
I'd get those windows tinted if I were you, I think it'd go better with the black accents. But you don't need it. Beautiful car.

Re: A few new pics of the 86
thanks for the kind words guys
they are J+M strut plates, from hotpart.com, they have tons of adjustment camber and caster, yet they are the old style and they are open around the shock, the new style look alot like spohns.

Re: A few new pics of the 86
new center console
new seats, well to me anyway
elbow grease
new headliner
sail panels
the car sat most of its life under a tree or something before i bought it, so the interior, dash pad and such were is good shape, no cracks fading, or wear. the exterior didnt fair so well.
but its all better

Re: A few new pics of the 86
What kind of hood is that? It doesn't look like a Glasstek, and there the only ones I've seen that make a 4" cowl for a 3rd gen T/A.
