Hey Talos,

That 4" hood looks nice.I have the same one only mine is a bolt on or at least it uses the stock hood latch. Where and how much was it to get painted? I need mine painted soon.

Hey talos, what is the site? You mean my cardomain.com site? Give me your site address for it...how could I miss it? I looked back in my guestbook and went to people who gave me a compliment, maybe I missed it somehow, I had to purge a lot of entries from riceboy haters that I call BS on when they list 11s and 12s with no details of mods Where did you leave the comment??? I just saw your link on that msn picture book, no comment book there though right?

Hey awesome car!!!! I'd love to make that much power, but my Poncho engine costs so damn much for parts...Oh well, I'm in college for the next 4 yrs so I work with what I can. The wheels look small, because, well, they are. They are 15x7, the stock size. I originally was thinkin of getting 16's, but the tires I had were like new, so I didn't want to waste em and get new ones......BTW, I want cutouts, but some people say no backpressure will kill my motor, ie burn the valves. IS THIS TRUE? Some say yes, some say no. I mean regular use as well, not just at the strip. I want to open the headers on the street sometime, to scare small children and animals! Please reply back! Once again, awesome car! It's in great shape!








I DID POST THERE DUDE! See? I had you added to my friends list on there too , I could've sworn I replied to it, I remembered the pics too.......Check again man!!

Yeah it's smarter actually to wait and get something kick *** when you get out of school. I am going to try to hold onto mine for the next 4 yrs.....I will do whatever necessary to be a cheap bastard....Have not spent much yet, I just hope somehow I can come up with some car later to use for working a real job or something in a few years. Good luck.

Talos:

I got my hood from Token as well. Did you use the stock hood springs or did you use lighter tension ones?
