Sweet deal on the trans. You keeping it as a spare? Or rebuiling it and flipping for a profit?

Got this for my gold 8g

Thats going in the galant spring time. The tranny in the car now runs fine except the fact that the reverse light witch is stuck and even though it shifts great i think its slower then when i first installed it. Since im looking forward to doing some engine internal work this will be perfect a nice stage 2-3 clutch is a must.

Today I painted my my diamond emblem and the plastic strip under it that says "galant" flatt black since I already had my grill painted in that color. Might do the v6 emblems in a bit, but I'm not sure yet lol.

Reading up on fiberglass thinking of trying it for the first time on that Crappy spare tire cover

Pick up backing plate for the rear disc conversion for 10$, also picked up a bunch of parts for the mustang 5.0 we have

Practice makes perfect. Fiberglass isn't the easiest stuff to work with, but the limitations of what you can create are endless.

I been playing with it at work a lot same with carbon fiber,

HTC EVO 4G

carbon fiber is worse than fiber glass to work with

Winter mode installed my steelies noticed how ugly they are.. looking for a alternative trying to keep my rims off to give my transmission a little break from the heavy weight

They're 15", right? Clean up the steelies, hit them up with tire shine, and nab a set of chrome trim rings, most parts stores carry the 15" trim rings.

Besides cry about the dent I put this on lol.

Finally finished my Big 3 upgrade that ive been putting off for almost 3 months (pure lazy) all i had to do was connect the alternator to battery 0gauge .

LOL @ House avatar^^

Finally I'm getting this retro off the ground, ordered FX-R 1.1 projectors and Morimoto D2S 35W ballasts today and got the Cyber Monday discount of 20% at The Retrofit Source!!!

Sweet can't wait to see the finished product, once I get my hands on a set of heads I might do this, only thing that bothers me is putting the head light in the oven just to take the lens off, with my luck ill forget its in the oven and ill have a pile of melted plastic, and a smelly house

I'm gonna try the heat gun method, I think it'll be better for me than trying to throw 'em in the oven lol because I'm the same way.

Good shit greg. I can't wait to see the output with the cbi. I like their white output but idk if I want the wash out when it rains.
