    Motivation from today

    After seeing most of the nicest f-bodies in the area I think im going to get a 402 from texas speed, a performabuilt stage 2 tranny, and 9" from moser... plus a badass paintjob....


    Time for a loan while im making good money... not married and dont have a single thing to worry about... except for gas prices and random little shit.....

    I dont know what to do first.. I know I need to get a DD though...

    thoughts and opinions???

    Do the rear first then motor & trans. Paint job is always last as it's easy to mess up body work doing the heavy work and I know to many people that it's happened to. Just make sure you get some suspension in it too.

    Full adjustable UMI . Im tired of my semi functioning suncoast hood so ill probably sell it and get a gm.

    I think i will let the paint get rough because I know Ill have a ton of new quarter panel flex when all is said is done. A good break in then I can get everything fixed.

    I just wished it was paid off so i could take out another loan

    I know what you mean about the suncoast hood. I was thinking of getting their air box, but then the free ram air won't work.

    I was debating starting modding my car again, I have sank over 7k in aftermarket shit for my quad making it identical to the #1 current racer. While sitting out there putting on some trick carbon fiber pieces last night I though, fuck, imagine what I could have done to my car with that cash.

    Or, imagine what ELSE you could have done with 7 K. At least it wasnt 7 K on LOAN for some fucking 10% interest or something. Different strokes.

    Im 19, I want to get my car done and get a beater. Just got out of HS. Working my way up at a place 1/2 mile from my house, GF is 17, wont be getting married for a while(after college) I can pay off the loan fast. Work pays for college... Build a house. Get it nice. Ive got 200 acres already... Full insurance, 401k, life insurance, dental, eye, healthetc etc .Im not worried about being the fastest . Just something clean, and very reliable.

    Im really bummed because I want to unabuse my car since it has been neglected all its life and I cant park it and do work on it. I do one mod and then something else breaks because I drive it absolutely everywhere!

    It sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    SHE DESERVES BETTER TREATMENT!!!
