garvice Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 gokiburix, from your signature I always pictured your car as more brown. but it looks like quite a deep red maroon. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted May 4, 2008 Author Share Posted May 4, 2008 Yeah, each picture makes it look a different color. Sometimes brown, red, purple... When my car had only been jammed (door jams painted) I thought the buy had painted it black, but upon closer inspection it was the color I picked. The color really changes in different lights.

thetremendoustim Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 I saw a picture much earlier in the thread about a guy who had a client clint barks or something like that, is there a place to buy 2+2 side skirts??? I don't believe MSA sells them, I've been looking through their complimentary catalogue for like an hour and can't find anything! any suggestions?

Rustyfriend Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 i have some 2+2 fiberglass sideskirts from the MSA style 2 kit. brand new and never installed $200/shipped. and an update on my cars: my '77 is getting mirrors put on today, as well as a windshield on wednesday. still trying to lean it out a bit '78 part out is moving along. the car has lost all of its soul with no motor, trans, seats, front end, mirrors, or steering wheel. rear end is soon to be pulled as well. saving every manual part except for the transmission for my 5-speed swap down the road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEvilrps13 Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 hey rusty! do you have the bolts for the seats? my car came with the seat poorly riveted to the floor i got a new seat (since the previous idiot cut up the seat rail) and forgot to get bolts.

Challenger Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 http://kpr.craigslist.org/car/637273345.html Looks nice. Love the wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbesheer Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Those look like old Enkei Mesh. Nice look but too much surface area for a mesh wheel I think. Personally I prefer the SSR reverse mesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEvilrps13 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 DAMN IT. so....we have the timing all set. compression is at 160psi on all six cylinders.
