    Exclamation For those who haven't seen the round tails

    Here is an old pic I found from 1998... It was taken probably a week after I got the tails made, cause thats when I decided to cut out holes in the bumper for the reverse lights... the covers for the reverse lights are from the door courtesy lights.

    Here is the front pic from around the same time... still haven't cut the rear bumper to add the corner lips to the front.

    I have a vent from the Turbo Ford Falcon on the passenger side above the battery.

    Also have JIS fogs... or something like that.

    Clear turn signals, and the hood scoop.

    And the interior shot.

    SAAS Steering wheel with Boss kit.

    Some crapy plastic pedals with fake carbon fiber center.
    nice floor mat and faded matching seat covers.

    Oh and my shifter case is aluminum... I think I was interior/exterior mod crazy back then, all my stuff was custom made out of aluminum. :lol

    oh and I removed the carpet from the speaker grills and painted them yellow. I thinks thats the furthest I went with the interior before deciding to go for performance before looks.

    What my lights or the 5-speed stuff?

    I still use my round lights now and then... if I'm in the mood.

    they are in disrepair though.

    I remember seeing pics of that car and saying wow thats a crazy mod!!!!!! I loved the scoop! that was just amazing I though. I saw the pic of Mike's dash with practically nothing on it, just a tach, gauges, seats and a steering wheel, and that ravashing carpet that was on the dash at one point. That is a great car Mike.
