Welcome from a fellow person who hangs around collinsville.

I'm really surprised those 17's look that good... not a fan of the design, but hell, keep em on there until you have some extra dough left over to change them. I'd remove most of those stickers too, but whatever.

Always put money into the engine before appearance IMO.

haha i just got in from de-stickering..took me about an hour but i got all of em! and wheels are wheels till i get a motor. eventually i wanna get some nice wheels but for now its all about motor...i need a shop that will let me ship an engine to them and do the swap myself. its not looking like im gonna find that so can anybody around here point me in the right direction with this thing? im looking for a cheap solution for bad rings.well at least i think its rings. Car smokes really bad. anyone got a good block laying around?

I was at speedway this week and theres a few hatches in there with stock tails that still look new, Cars in decent shape and a decent build. You decide if your staying d-series or something else.

Relocating the prop valve inside the car and running new hard lines and stainless lines that are out of plain sight. Not a lot of people do it.
