[sleeepy240]

[sleeepy240]

[got chub]

your a hermit... swapping for shell to shell. lol looks good though

[Gabes13]

lawlz at front tires

e. bay looks sick. keep us updated

[wynnEZ]

Nice shell, how much did you pick it up for?

[urcaptnspeaking]

Nice looking shell. Im not too fond of the flat black though. Have you ever looked under the hood of an older (black) car that has been sitting and rusting away with faded paint? Thats what It kind of reminds me of. Gloss black makes it look so much more clean. Just my pennies on the subject though.

Good Luck dood

[sleeepy240]

i picked it up 4 only 600. it also came w/ a pig nose front clip that i havent picked up yet. also included n the 600.

hey urcaptnspeaking. i know what u mean bout the older blk car's. im a big fan of flat blk. the car is gonna b painted flat blk. thats why i did under the hood flat blk. i thought it would look funny if the outside was flat nd then u open the hood nd it all glossy nd shinny. this is the 1st time i srayed under the hood flat blk not glossy on any of the car's that i have had.

[urcaptnspeaking]

Dont get me wrong Im sure it will turn out nice.

[White Comet]

i swear, if that wasnt a chuki i'd swear it was my shell. i only paid $300 for mine though

[urcaptnspeaking]

I wish there were deals like that around here. Its pretty lame.

[sleeepy240]

hey got_chub these 1st pics r of my old shell. thats why im shell hopping.now to the work. this is what i got done so far. removed rad nd fan, wire harness nd pulled engine nd trany. also transferd brake master nd booster plus pedal steup nd clutch master nd pedal setup. transferd power steiring lines nd resvior. also put n steiring colem. here r sum pics.i'll keep u guy's updated as soon as i get a chance 2 get back 2 cali 2 finish it. just dont have the room here n vegas

[tramp_drift240]

lose the fram oil filter.

and is it that hard to say "to" instead of "2"?

hooray for swapping shells.

[got chub]

wow yeah i see why you swapped shells now

[phatjo911]

Lol does your "a" button not work or something I keep on seeing "nd"Nice looking shell I wish I found one tho...

[sleeepy240]

whats up everyone. i got a little more progress done. first of all i got the engine & trany in. installed shifter,and rad. also swoped shocks and springs.

i removed the fuel pump out of new shell to see the condition of the gas and this is what i found. compared to the tank that came out of my blk hatch 2nd pic

i'm most defanetly changing tanks. already have both tanks out just havent reinstalled good tank. oh also ran engine harness and swoped wheels from blk hatch. much better. slowly, but surely its coming together. hopeing to install good tank before i take off back to vegas.

[White Comet]

its kinda funny to see this build. i too am swapping parts from my black hatch to my red shell. only i have an sr

[sleeepy240]

[Black on Gold]

Boo to the exhaust

[sleeepy240]
