| Just a sneak peak of the new ride. First thing it's getting a detail from top to bottom. Then need to figure out what's going on with the runners. Not sure if it's the offset or the tire size but they stick out some. Then laying new carpet in the back, new streeet tires, and very little body work in the back. I'll get some new pics tomorrow after the detail. | |

| Is that Brian Days car? if so it has been taken care of, minus the high passes at the track being a bracket car. I was wondering who he sold it to. Good looking car. | |

| Yeah it's Bryans car, very nice kid! My buddy knows his mom and then I work with a couple people that know her and her husband. It feels real solid, just planning on doing some cosmetics and cleaning it up. And will probably leave it like it is and do some bracket racing with it. | |

| Yeah I'm probably going to keep the hood. Someone told me tonight they are on back order.
No spacers on runners. Not sure if its the tire size or the offset.. | |

| Did a quick wash, clay, and wax job today. Paint still needs a little work, but it's looking better. | |

| I believe it's in the 1.50's. I haven't put the slicks on yet but I have seen pics with them and it looks good. Any idea what size tire I should be running on the front? It has 26x6's.. | |

| 26x4x15 I would think but depends on the rim width up front. | |
