    Thumbs up Back on the road!!!

    So I illegaled the car up to the inspection place this morning, they looked at the fresh paint, checked the lights and door weatherstripping, and put it up on the hoist. When they saw the freshly painted gas tank and brand new undercoating, along with the new suspension hardware, brakes and everything else, they looked totally shocked and then sorta gave up looking for problems. They pulled a front and rear wheel to measure the brakes, and confirmed that they were, in fact, brand new. It passed with zero defects.

    After 2 years of work, and thousands of dollars in parts, she drives legally again.

    Man she looks sweet! Hard to believe that this is the same car:



    as this car:



    I just love the shaved door moldings, shaved hatch wiper, and shaved emblems. She is all nice and shaved clean! Looks damn good!

    Spiffy! Looks good without the side moldings. I've been thinking of doing that for a while now, either that or going to a lower profile. Seeing that motivates me to get it done.
    You should get some trim rings for those steelies.
