Need to put more attention to detail in the engine bay after the repaint but here is a picture of it for now. I did replace alot of old parts in it including the motor. Its a 2.5l stroker rebuilt w/ 48mm TBs.




Photos of the BBS wheels I have with a custom aluminum center nut

It was done in different places.

mostly from Kartoys in SJ

Motor was done at DSR in SJ

Interior was all ordered from Germany

Rare old school wheels all from Germany (US Customs loves me)

Paint will be done at UACC in Burlingame ( the best IMO)

and a lot of patience and research
