Nice and thanks for the replies. My first mods will be finish the stereo, since I just so happen to have a JL8W7 and a JL500.5 and a 1 Farad cap sitting in the garage...

My future plans consist of approx 460-470hp from AZPS. Thats a little while down the road though.

Looks like a nice car. FRC's are my favorite body style. Good luck with it.

Welcome to the PERMAGRIN club. Now you have to be careful of not becoming a MODAHOLIC too quick, but I think that it is unavoidable.
Again WELCOME and congrats on the ride.
