My progress of the last 11 months

[Proto]

I can't really remember the dates except when I bought it but here are the pics to show the progress I've made over the last 11 months. I bought the car Jan 7, 2007. Finally come to a stage to where I feel it's complete until I upgrade the turbo, fuel system, and possible 6 bolt swap.
