What's up guys n gals. I mostly lurk and build my knowledge base from all that is posted here. But I do want to pop in and post a bit of what I've done to my project.

Like I said I picked it up for $500, from a friend of the family. Sat for almost 2 years before I got it, and it was in poor shape when I got it. I've replaced a slew of components and now it's driving like a dream, for a 27 year old car!

Here's a list on everything i can recall that I've fixed on it to get it running and what I've replaced performance-wise.
