Dude, why are you installing suspension and putting around for photo shoots when you still have body panels that you haven't sanded and a whole car that needs primer and paint?

Actually... that car is sorta looking "rat rod" to me... Looks kinda cool in a "I rallied my car to hell and back" sort of way.

That said... paint that damn thing, for the love of god!!

It seems to handle a lot better. I can't till the GSR event to see how it really handles.
