If you are interested in seeing my build here it is.

3000GT / Stealth / GTO - AWD conversion/engine build








Nice car is that an old z24 in the background ? Wish I had that space to work in

We used to build 70 's and 80 's trans ams , got a few military vehicles we have done, couple other 80's cars waiting to be restored for me and dads collection just no room to work

Here is a navy jeep in progress, frame up still needs body work to cover some bad work from a previous owner.

Thanks

damn, I love that Jeep! Would be so cool to have one.

The red car is an older rx7 vert. It's just a fun DD to run in the summer. I might fix it up later or I might sell it this year. Not sure yet.

Added royal purple 75/140 in rears, sucked out power steering fluid and aided Lucas synthetic PS fluid not the stop leak

Noticed instant difference with both

Somehow stripped the t/c drain then snapped it off so it will not get royal purple for now
