I had a good work day today my youngest brother "wanted to" help me work on the Z. While he took out the coolant hoses i was underneath the Z day dreaming and almost fell asleep. Creapers are comfy. We also took out the taillight panel thing. Now we are waiting for the pizza to come out the over. Fun day of work for me and him. More for him because it was a learning experience and fyi he is 10yrs old. Pictures:

How much was the chassis?

I like the sound of both, but i would like to get a decent gas mileage at 400 or so horsepower. I have to make 120(includes both ways) mile trips every other week end.The RB sounds sick as, but the LS1 sound like a monster raping something. RB is cheaper but parts are sorta hard to get, ls1 cost more and parts are easy to get but I'm on a real tight budget.( i read all the threads on the cost of a RB and LS1 swap) I know how much it takes for a complete swap. And I'm going to cut out the middle man to save money and do as much work i can myself.

Things have been going "uber" slow. Its raining and cold and i'm out of money. I'm going to the casino for my first time in 2 weeks. I'm going to be 18 one Dec 14th. yay me. So yeah thats were I'm at as of now. Oh and i'm taking my struts into my welding class next year and I'm going to try and follow AZcar's write up on converting them to coil overs.

Thats crazy. It time for me to make an Ebay account and sell some stuff now.

Mines better: (there was like a big a** spider so i had fun)

Not as rusty as i thought, Basically no rust at all.

Today I removed both Rear strut assemblies: Pictures: (I noticed that one is the same as the other just flipped up side down)

If you make the mounts and do the wiring yourself you can take at least 1k off the total cost. And where you get the parts from ie. water pump,belts,..etc. Some people can have a "hook up" at stores or what ever, and that can bring the cost down even more.

I don't think anyone touched on the gas mileage you would get if driven daily and making 400-450hp. I would like to know.

Here is my setup pretty basic but it will do.

Time for an update. Work Done: removed windshield, removed both door windows,removed both glass frames(?), cleaned the floors ( 3 tiny rust holes ), carpet (hatch has to be redone (some other time), stero placement,seats are out(looking at pick n pull to find some nice ones),and umm...i think thats it. I went under the car on the stands and there is virtually no rust any where except the 3 holes in the floor other than that the only places are the doglegs and thats it. i dont want to have bad carma by saying it basically rust free but its looking like it is. I dont work on it alot because i have been busy with finding a job and other things. But mostly looking for a job. Pictures:

i did it again.i officially hate super glue..i glued my thumb to my index finger because i was pinching two pieces of plastic together for my rc car body..

I told my friend about it and he is going to ask his dad can he buy it for him as a graduation gift/present/incentive... btw. hey gollum, your never on aim anymore eh?

Got out of school early today so i could do some work on the car. Work Done: well in the process removing drum brakes and strut assembly.and carpeting front floors.( im stumped on how to get the spindle pins out ( i think thats what they are) ) any help?

Today i did a large amount of work only to find out the p.o of this car was a complete moron or just didnt care if he died or not. I didnt get a chance to get pictures of the before and afters because i got cought up in the "just get it done" mood. I will have some tomorro i hope. and a full write up of what i did for the 4 days of no updates.
