Recent pics of my notch and sound clips..

I cleaned out my car and it looked pretty good so I took a few pics. I also fixed my exhaust and raised the drivers side about 3 in. and the other about 1 in. I looks a lot better and may still need a little messing with to be perfect.

I'm going to be ordering a new brake lines for the rear of the car and want to make sure I get the right ones. I did search and found this site and they never replied to my e-mail.

Do I need and special tools for this job? I think I might as well rebuild thr rear drums as well.

And last but not least I going to get some springs for this car because it looks jacked up....

Im in love with your car. The only thing i would change is what you said about getting different springs. I dont usually like the cowl vent and window trim painted the same color as the body color, but somehow yours pulls it off quite well

The cat back is made by MAC and the tips are 3". I think their is about 2" or more from the rear tires to the pipes. At first I was mad because I thought it fit all wrong. But this cat back is so ajustable that I had it all wrong. After some playing it is perfect and a lot louder than most catbacks...I think it sounds pretty good for just a full exhaust car..Thx guys!

Paint all the window trim black, wipers included, and it would look a ton better in my eyes. Still a nice car!

Well the car came that way and I want to get it repainted in the future anyway. I like the striping painted black but I think it looks a bit cheaper because on higher end cars they are mostly all one color. The only thing I don't like are the wipers being red. I'll have a clip of the car in a few...

Sorry man, but having the red trim on the windows simply RUINS the looks of it.

Here is a sound clip of my 5.0. I think it's too loud for the camera when filming under the car because I think on the clip it sounds kind of bad.

Nice looking car The painted window trim doesnt look too bad, it wouldnt be too hard to repaint though. I'd lower it like a few others said, that would make it look soooo good.
