    Hell ya!! Kind of makes you wonder if it will start at first, but none the less nice vid. Sounds sweet. I wouldn't drive it too far with it having the body parts missing. Anyhow, sweet!!! Sounds good. Good work Jigabu.

    Interior Update

    So heres a qucik update on my progress... I've still failed to touch the body... But the interior is comin along nicely... I was tryin to do some things Ive never seen before and so far it's successful... Now I did say I've never seen some of these ideas before, not that no one else has done them... I am however hoping Im pioneering these ideas... So enough with the chit-chat here's some eye candy





    That is a real wood floor... I'm trimmin out the rest today... The carpet is not preformed the only way I'm making it work with minimal wrinkles is because I'm cutting so much out of it... The seat is my old driverseat (which is a crx si seat) recovered in black and blue specked tweed by yours truley... The subbox will be mirrored on the other side and both covered in black tweed and padding...
    I didn't want to get rid of the back seat totally so that I have somewhere for my dog to ride with the wife and I, and for a babyseat one day... I have already made a slogan for the seat..."if you can fit you can sit".. It would not comfortably accomedate someone my size for a ride across town...
    K thats it for now... Alot more to go... But I'll GIT R DUN

    Interior Update 2.0

    So slowly it's all falling together... Unfortunately it's been to cold to do any glass work so I've been pushing on with the interior... The trunk is done, aside from the nitrous bottle, hose and wire installation... I just gotta finish trimming out the driverside floor board and recover the driver seat and the bottome part of the passenger seat and install them... And make the custom door panels, cover and install... So heres some eyecandy...

    Re: Jigabu's Engine Rebuild/Restoration Thread...

    yea it's a lot of switches... I like to have individual control over certain things ie, tail lights (may come in handy, who knows?).. But I'll Bet u 50 bux I could give you my keys and u still couldn't steal my car... U only c those and the others aren't so obvious or outta the ordinary...

    Ok so what was the point in your post?.. I drive this car...
    True I post this stuff up for the public to see and say what they will...
    But flat out negativity isn't needed... If you have some constructive critism, I have no issues... I could care less that You, don't like it... And for that 1 no, Theres 12 out there that love it...
    And come on.. For real, whos got a wood floor?.. Thats gonna be the next big thang man... It'll be on mtv in all the dunks in no time..

    You cant start the car without the main relay it's what makes the fuel pump work. I dont understand what a flat head would fix. Sorry to thread jack
