I'm looking more towards taking the craptastic aftermarket parts off it and trying to return it to as close to stock as possible.

then sell it for a profit!

lol, I was just going to say, Adder with a fox?? the rapture must be coming haha

why you ditching the Cobra?


as for my winter project... if I can swing it $$$ wise over my winter break, I may either a. lower the pile... b. get new lower control arms so I can ditch my quad shocks, which are shot anyway, or is it uppers I need to replace? can never remember... C. pull the door panels and the inside 1/4 panel trim and rebuild/repair/restore the power window motors, bushings, guides, tracks and seals so I can TRY to get rid of the two huge air leaks I have... D.. complete C, then get a new mass back carpet for it.

E. all of the above

I cant wait to graduate college

but what i'm really going to work on over the winter is this.



and put this in it




i found an 1983 s10 for sale that he want 250 bucks for it. its in wonderful condition, no rust except for inside the truck bed. and also there is a dealer around here that would hook me up with a ls7 motor and trans for 5400 dollars. or if i want to save more for suspension he will sell me an ls1 with a fast intake and 90mm tb + trans for 3000.


i live at a friends house now for free so i plan on makin this truck to sell. i figure with the right gears and suspension it'll be 10's easy.

ls7 into a s10
i wouldnt mind putting one of those motors in a s10 myself

This. I was waiting on parts when I had to move down to San Diego for grad school. I've only been back up to Northern California for a couple days at a time since. Hopefully I can wrap this up over winter break. It's been waaay to long and I want the car down here.
