I bought this car 2 years ago and had all intentions of just having a nicely done street built car with 4-500hp.I got the 400whp, and well, here I am. After having a close friend (wvturbo2) turn his street car into a strictly strip car, I decided it was time for mine to follow in line. Sold off pretty much everything in/on the car and I am starting fresh. I will try to update over the winter as frequently as I am able to, and I am sure wvturbo2 will toss in some pictures too when I am not able to.

Sinister Stall (bought this a year ago, if we dont have luck with it I will be getting a Precision Industries converter)

That's everything I can think of off the top of my head, I am sure i will add more as I think of it. Here are the pics so far of the progress.
The car last year before I started selling parts off
Here it is the night we started tearing into it
First things first, off with the front!
And here we have bumpers and fenders on getting a plan for the front end
Next we started on the interior. Sound deadening, junk under dash, misc. panels all gone and dash sitting back in there
Out with the old...
In with the new
Took out the gas tank.....what a heavy pig!
