I know right Dave. I don't know where $1000 went. Well... it went for titling,inspection, tires, tire mounting, new battery terminals, new rad., christmas presents. The small stuff adds up. Oh well... I'm working now so I'll have like $400 more dollars in two weeks.

Edit: plus its more than a $1000 I'm just rounding down for a change.

Guys, you can PM me with your bets on how long it takes for this thing to get sold.
Hahahaha, just fucking with you Ben. I wish I could find the time to drive up and help you fix that thing up. But it's good to see you back in the game. Hopefully for good.
I don't know if you care to hear my opinion but if I were you, I would work on getting that car back to top shape. Find some nice blue cloth seats, a carpet if yours is stained, little interior shit that might be messed up. I'd type more but I need to get ready to go back to base tomorrow. I'll text you later dude.

How about.. save the money from the spacers and just save more for rims.

Yeah Boris I'm gonna save that money that i was gonna spend on wheel spacers and combine it with my tax return and prolly be able to get some wheels.

Why would someone put wheel spacers on Hunka13? Cause the stock wheels sit too far in for some people...

It does improve handling by allowing the car to have a wider stance and in some cases allows for more steering angle. So you are correct in thinking those things.

Wow...interesting project. Car looks really good after wash. You still got work to do. Iagree with others that saywork on enigne ,suspension first if you plan on drifting... you'll tear up the body again. I know how it feels to have the car not look how you want too...but you have have to focus on the reason for the project, drifitng You can still pick up the interior pieces here and there and slowly get it looking nice. i would leave paint and body for last.
Great project tho...subcribed!

K so I got some things that will be here within the week that will liven this thread up.

Meanwhile, I failed inspection cause my e-brake is FTL, front right caliper is leaking, a couple rust holes in the spare tire compartment, and I don't have a rear wiper
