she needs ALOT of wax.

Could be the pickup. M42 is a good engine when boosted, other then not you're not getting anywhere fast. If you want good power either do a M30 or M50 swap or boost it.

What springs is the car on, it doesn't look factory.

Other then that, the car looks clean, after a good waxing it will look really good.
