always loved the car, never liked the wheels or hood though. I think I see this one at shoot out every year.

Absolutely beautiful! Great job. It's nice (to say the least) to see one that is not ghetto lol.

Looks awesome! The wheels are definately unique but not my style. But a front bumper and body kit from ebay would probably look good and add about 50hp /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

Thanks guys for the replies.

Yeah, the wheels always get a ton of opinions both ways(like or dislike) . (Liked the 3" deep lip) Thier def not common. I have 4bolt conversion already & waiting. 4ws still works for now, down the road I'll do the 5 lug and get some more wheels.

Never liked the "Vader" hood actually, but my stock one had bad dings. At the time I was running a FP header , really liked the vent so the hood was for the heat. And of course the weight savings. (Stock hood weighs a ton!).
