Under the hood is not very impressive yet,, but the steel cables around the motor mts req IAW SOLO race rules gives you the idea the only time it might be in a grocery store parking lot is for a show. I'll post int/motor pics when finished.

A update- The rear end was never pulled true by the 1st shop so it had to be set right but re-pulling the frame caused a fender to warp and it has to be redone. The repair the 1st shop did on the rear bumper cover did not agree with the paint so It'* bubbling. I was able to take it for the weekend and put in the int/stereo. I also did a oil change and fixed a doz body details that the shops negleted. BUT A bigger issue has devolped- it cuts out and has a hunting idle. After warm-up it bounces BTW 500-1500 rpm and dies, inc when I clutch to slow down it just dies- no fun on a off ramp with a curve and wa-la no pwr steering.
I pulled the TB to check the IAC- ( enter many-many-many words of death and mass destruction and hate) There was SOOOO much paint in the TB I could not clean it out! WTMF! I R/R the IAC it'* better. IT also has a check eng light. With a code 43 (knock sense) and 32 (EGR). The 32 is prob keeping it light lit and I guessing all that f'in paint from running the car w/o a air fliter properly attched in the 1st shop f'ed up the EGR solnoid also (there vac controlled in these cars). I think the 43 is just a by-product of the other issues. Well I'm not a gear-jammer yet but I'm learning.
