Just so i could smash it :D


right now it has no interior left no windows or exterior lights, im turnin it into a claimer car, for those of you who dont know. its an oval class at racecity limited to ONLY front wheel drive 4 cyl auto's and any spectator can claim your car after any race for only $400... its great cheap fun!!!

(i paid about $100 for the car and it will have costed me about $250 when i am done, but thats because i need to buy a harness and window net(but you get to take the harness out of the car if someone claims it, thats all you can take out of it, so next time if i get a $100 car it should only cost me about $175 to build it, including the car))


what i have left to do is put roll oveer posts in it and a door bar on it, and weld the doors, trunk and bolt the hood shut and then the most important thing PAINT! and then i am off to the races...

to race it and have fun... its a very cheap way to get on the track

and because of the rules it makes the racing close.. or as close as you can expect
