I just need the cat. con. to pass emmisions to get the car certified. As for paint the whole car needs paint, it is beyond just faded. it has some surface rust spots but no actual holes thankfully. Im just going to drive it for the summer & into the fall, or untill i can get a new floor in my aries. I dont feel like driving a RWD v8 in the winter to school & back when im only working about 10 hours a week. So my plan is to fix it up & drive it for the summer, then sell it in the fall.
Why didnt you use the 350.00 to fix your other car instead of now having 2 cars with problems you cant afford to fix.

oOo:[/quote:17669]

Because I cant get my car into the shop to work on it for about 2 months, in the mean time i need to drive something. but in the meantime the stuff that needs to be fixed on this car I can do at home.

Id be afraid to push the pedal in all the way. I cant even imagine what that kind of horsepower feels like.

I would be afraid of just blowing up some how. (I watched a net clip of a japnese Skyline Drift champ drive behind the wheel of a 1500 HP Skyline. They had him on mic, All you could hear from him on the straight away track was "in japenese translated to english " This car is to fast, this car is to fast" - The thing sounded a hell of alot like the GN which we just saw. It made me feel the same way. (Note The Skyline is a fine car in no way a ricer). Still that Grand Nationale wow !!!! I still fell it after watching again.

the body is my last concernt right now, but all the rust is surface rust, no holes yet. right now i need to replace the rim on the front passenger side because its bent & the alliegnment got knocked out too. the wiper motor dosent work, one coolent line leaks. im more worried about crutial stuff for now.

One of the guys I went to high school with had a black Grand National.

He ran down 2 old ladies while ripping around town in it. No joke.

From then on we labeled him (and the car) "The Nan Flipper". biggrin:
