This is what she looked like the day I bought her. (July 2013)

So, after over a year of this beauty sitting in my garage under the ever present protection of her car cover and month after month of talking about what I plan to do with her, I have finally "opened the can of worms."

:happydance:

"What's on the lift today, Jimmy?"

Well, I'm glad you asked..
Here we see the first modification being installed this weekend down at the ol' shop..


Here we have the old exhaust.. ewww

I could use some free OEM suspension parts with low miles :tiphat: :icon17:

exsanity 10-22-2014 03:59 PM

What parts are we talking about here?

exsanity 10-22-2014 09:59 PM

So, Bulletproof just called me..

The Amuse bumper that I ordered in July just got returned to their shop with today's shipment.. and I quote..
Quote:

..the box looks like it fell off of one truck and got run over by another truck..
Completely not their fault, but the situation sucks none the less.. have to wait for Amuse to make another one. :ugh: :shakes head:

Hey man, those are the Hotchkis sways, correct? I think I'm reading the pamphlet correctly. Anyway, they have the larger billet bushing brackets available. I highly recommend them. They aren't as movable and lock down like a bitch. I mean, you said you were doing a suspension build that wasn't lame soooo.... :stirthepot:
