Check out the latest "toy" for the KC Wrenching Society! My wife absolutely hates the color, but I think its perfect for a track car.

I'm offically listing the white car as my daughter now, so that my signature isn't so long. As for the wheels, 16" fuchs make nice track wheels, and I am positive they will be sufficient to match the skill of the drivers of this car for a while. Once we get the car fully sorted, we can talk about better wheels.

Regards,

Are you sure they are 6&7? It's possible they are 951 7&8.

Nice, nice. I see you got my seats put in already. The blue and the yellow kinda makes me want to throw up, but hey, it will be easy to see out at the track!

Yeah, well Lisa wasn't real thrilled when I announced we were taking it for a spin, either. She took a look at the stripped interior and said "are you sure you guys want to use this to advertise the KCWS? I mean, people will look at this and think you don't do very good work!" I almost drove off the road laughing...

I really wasn't in the best shape to swap seats today, but I just HAD to do something... lol I hope I am okay to go to Mikes for the tranny swap tomorrow...

No it is not. IIRC, Chris Blazer told me that the PO was/had a relative who worked at Maaco or similar place. I believe the original color was red.
