3.rd post. pics of my strosek
here are some pics of my strosek 951 just after i bought it..now the engine compartment is laying on my computer desk for insp 
new waterpump head gasket ad front seals is the first job to get in place.. i have already cadmium plated my timing/balance rollers and still wondering what upgrades i shall do.. looking for an strosek hood.. but not finding anyone selling them.. and want an front airsplitter but not sure how mutch it will cost yet..
one other project is to fix my totaly corroded bbs rims.. 10*16 rear and 8*16 front.. the previous owner had almost destroyed them in salty winter roads

but i think i need new brake pads that don`t make that much dust..That's right. Bathroom cleaner. Don't laugh! I didn't think it would be much good either when an older guy showed me, but the scrubbing buibbles spray cleaner foams up and after a few minutes, you hose the rims down, and all the brake dust is off or mearly so. It does not have harsh chemicals, so it won't damage the paint or chrome on the wheels either.
Try it. You'll like it. I swear by it.

cool car. It reminds me a little of the Roger Clemens 1986 Cy Young MVP car. Which the current owner of the car brings to a dealer near me for service. I think the Clemens car was done by Staruagat (i know i butchered the spelling please do not flame me).
