Welcome James  :mrgreen:
Car looks good! 

I had those wheels on my blue wagon and got rid of them because I was getting tired of the whole blue and gold thing......but on a white car.....damn that's sharp  :coolsmiley:

Is that old mustang yours too?

I actually bought a catless PDE downpipe and SPT exhaust from one of the members here, I'm a big fan of the stock looking exhaust (not to hate) just wanted a little more sound. the mustang is actually my fathers, I usually take over his garage so i have someplace dry to work on my car. that car also sounds amazing. Fully rebuilt 289 with headers and a full exhaust... you can hear it for miles, too bad its only a 3 speed :?

I would too if my dad had a clean garage with a big air tank (i think?) next to the garbage can lol
So tired of working on a broken driveway with no air tools

oops! you didn't miss too much. 4 hours of swearing at my old exhaust/ heat shield then 30 min of putting the new one on. But don't worry this is the first of many projects I'm sure.

That is an air tank, no air tools tho (yet) but just about any other tool you might need. if you ever need a place to work, let me know theres plenty of room.

Cool of you to offer  :mrgreen:

I know I'm not the only one around with that problem.....I say you host weekend install days and make people pay the bay rental in air tools.  Do hardware stores have gift registries?  :2funny:

what happened to your wrx?

A 18 year old girl ran a red light and hit me. It sucked, loved that car.






Luckily my car took it like a champ, but she cracked my block. Her car however (pos accent) was FAR worse off. Wouldn't buy anything but a suby after that. I should be in the commercial a Subaru saved my life!
