Ok time for an update...

Unkknown to you guy's and girls I have been having issues with the person who I bought the engine from. He has owed me the VAM, wiring harness and computer for a month and a half. Now I'm taking him to court to get $200 or the parts. I aint going to get rid of this engine and if he thinks I'm going to then he's smoking something way to strong[&:][&:][&:]

Anyways.... I have ordered a 1st gen bob's log for $110, I also found out my parents are going to buy me headlights for my car on my b-day () I have also wired my fan up to a switch because my sensor almost cought fire a few days ago[&:][&:][&:][:@] oh well though. Its fixed now

Anyways here is the link to the bobs log (crack has been welded so no worries) and the headlights my parents are getting me.

you should talk to a body shop and tell them if you buy the paint and do the body work all they would have to do is paint it. Im doing that next summer with my Crimson red with Silverish flakes..Im copying macadoo's car I think that's the one. it's gunnah cost me about 400 with paint and the labour. . all I have to do is sand..there isn't much wrong with this body.

I have to sand everything down on my car with 200, then 220, then 400 and then look for anyplaces that need filler (I know there are at least 4 places)

Then I have to seal the metal so rust doesn't form (nutralize) then prime, then sealer, then paint[&:]

none of the places around here let you do that, if they paint it, they do the prep work.

The reason that they don't let you do the prep work is so you don't blame them if it comes out wrong.
