As far as appearance mods go, a new hood and wheels + tires but that's going to cost me about 4k. I may be getting those early next year.
After that it's 3.73 gear ratio, BOSS intake manifold, Bassani long tube headers with high flow cats, and suspension overhaul - still narrowing down my choices.
Interior upgrades are coming up next, and I'll update this thread showing that real soon.

Along that way though I found a few other spots near trains and an industrial setting. We will def go out there sometime and take pics.

I like the BOSS front end but wanted to keep the pony emblem and have fog lights down low vs empty holes or brake hose hooked up.
