What was the first thing you did to your car when you first got it?

I saw this in the 92+ section and figured it'd make a great piece here.

My first thing was I bought for my current 13's. Eagel Alloy babys. Then I got the clock and lighter out of a junked one. Soon, I did everything else to it including the rear wiper and the red center piece.

I tore the motor down, and am getting the head re-worked. First thing, right off of the bat. I'll get the head back tomorrow, and might actually get it on the road for the first time since I've had it!

Re: What was the first thing you did to your car when you first got it?

I think I transferred my stereo system over. That's usually what I always do. If I'm gonna go slow I might as well listen to some tunes. But I think I did the motor/intake/full exaust pretty darn close to when I got it.

Me and buddy of mine went and picked up the car around 3pm and by 9pm we had the back end of the car stripped down to bare metal, had the interior gutted, had the front drivers fender off, had the spoiler/taillights/filler piece all off.
