So we paid a tow truck to tow my car to my school, so he's going to do it at a pretty decent price tomorrow evening. :D

Till then I'm going to finish up the interior as much as I possibly can.

But here's some tidbits of today, I got out the heater core stuff, came out fairly easy. Broke the main piece and the light colored piece a bit. lol but idc I'm not using any of it anyway.

Heres some pics of today.

Test fit of the new fender

mock up of the other fender back on. Bent it back out to normal.

fender.

Interior is almost done! OMG

Well today, I decided that sending my car to a shop full of kids was retarded(and the teacher started being an ***hole.)

I got an appointment for monday to a real frame shop to get it fixed. He said by next friday it'll be fixed completely and be ready to go! So stay tuned!

So Just a little update it is offical, the frame shop guy came over today and took a final look at it before I brought it over, he said I need to put the bumper support back on, and stuff like that. I plan on doing that tonight.

Then next weekend when we get it back I'm pulling the ka, and I'll also let you guys know tonight about my paint job, I gotta see what my cousin wants to do, I'm hoping he will paint the interior, engine bay, and whole car. But to do that I gotta fix or buy a new hatch. ugh!

Thats it for now.

anyone around PA got a hatch for sale thats nice?

if it is going to be a track car, find a friend that is somewhat decent at welding and have him seam stitch the rear seat bracket things, and both the front and rear strut towers before you finish up the interior. it will help stiffen the car up a lot and wont cost much more than some welding wire and time.

So today was an off day, nothing wanted to come out right, even the ka was giving me problems. ugh

But I got the engine transmission and drive shaft out, but in the process I banged up the top of the core support, but no real damage, I'm just a freak when it comes to that so I'm kinda upset I gotta hammer it straight..

I also ordered my PaDrift stickers, and I ordered a cat back exhaust and a test pipe. haha

So here's some pictures, as of now tomorrow its going to the frame shop, which we stopped over today and he said he'll start on it like Tuesday or Wednesday, because hes kinda behind. which I don't mind I guess, gives me time to just relax.

Yeah its pretty funny actually.

Well my plans from the start was to get this ka running then over the next winter build the bottom end..but now I'm selling the second ka to build this sr for next year..my ka-t project is near completion..about 100 bucks more or so for oils and coolant lines..

The sr I plan on boring the bottom end .020 forged pistons maybe stock rods then build the head for 9k rpms with cams springs etc. then for that i'm thinkin a gt3071r bottom mount for a good 400+ hp.
