update 11/8/06 page 2

heres some of the latest pics. i have the trunk lid sanded and back on right now. the ground effects are getting sanded right now. some pics of my y pipe installed and if you look at one of them close enough you will see my trans mount it missing a bolt and the plate going across the top...isn't going across the top. I took off the convertible top and fixed a few loose brackets, holes, sound deadened all the rattling plastic parts, and am trying to find some plastic to replace the rear window.
The interior is a mess but idc right now. haha can you see my NOS bottle?
Last but not least...the cavalier (DD) R.I.P. Notice the passenger air bag cover thing busted the windshield.

yea i got all the little spacers and everything marked where they were supposed to go.
yep its a BIG project but it is fun. I just wish i had a bigger air compressor than my 25 gallon or w/e b/c it doesn't hold much air and has to fill back up when im using my DA like every 5 minutes.

get an extra air tank (they are pretty cheap) otherwise you'll kill the compressor (da's use more air than almost any tool)
