these cars all look low as ****.

I have b&g springs, advertised as 1.4 in lowering all around. It is slightly lower than it was. But I still have some fender gap.

I HATE FENDER GAP

I'm afraid I can't beat 1st7heaven's shots or anything involving ajc13b's car

All my "action" pics are in-car only (see avatar... whoops!) but I can try borrowing someone else's pic... just a lil' burnout.

Ahh but look at the hood.... the original paint was STILL SHINY!

(Of course I had to buff it out at least once a month... get the rust stains off of the rockers... )

Funny how 1st-gens manage to stay ahead of 911's on the track

joewahid: believe it or not there weren't any holes except for behind the right rear wheel... although the right rocker was mostly Bondo 5 months later the roof was swiss cheese and the floor was getting bad behind the driver's seat. Salt works FAST

The reason I did this thread was because I just got a new scanner/fax/copier/printer. I didnt have a digital camera when I was racing......but I have tons of 35mm shots so now I can scan......this is why they are a little grainy looking. I havent actually had the car racing since I have been re-doing it.

Here is one getting ready for action!!

by the way this is when I was converting from street to CSP, I had 15x7s on it....soon after this I went to 13x8s.....now 16x10s
