Pull the body of the frame, spend god knows how many hours repairing the quarter panels, install some frame braces, then take the frame to get media blasted and painted. Then you’re left with the same car minus some rust and somewhat stiffer! (and completely disassembled)

Let me just correct this for them:

Step 1: Buy a car which isn’t a rusty POS.

Step 2: Add cheap power.

Step 3: Add handling.

Step 4: Thrash.

Buy an SN95. Put in a cam, add sticky tires, make sure your Traklock rear end has new clutches.

Or in my case: Do all the inspection work, break something, pull the engine apart, cry.

How to build any low buck car, according to nearly every show ever:

Step 1. Spend a fortune on tools.

Step 2. Spend very little on a car because you spent all you had on tools.

Step 3. ....

Step 4. Don’t profit.

I would date her. Just hoping she’d let me drive her car.

I recall her to be a very wild and interesting woman.
