Black cherry Project

Well, picked this badboy up for 1000 running. He thought that it had a steering problem and didn't want to mess with it.
(Notice tires in the pic)




It had been a nice car, but for the last year it has been sitting because of the steering problem. After 20 mph the whole car shakes really bad.
We bring over newer tires.. problem solved.. lol.

Got a good wash/ wax on it:




Quite a big difference.
Under the hood, started fixing a few things/ wiring:



Little cleaner, and came with some goodies. Oh, and also what came with the car was a seperate 2.4 block w/ ported head

I already got the intake manifold/ VC powdercoated to match:


It's gloss black, and under the light it's redish purple. keke..

Car started making weird noises under the hood, so it's parked for now. But I'm still debating on wether this car gets the 2.4 or 2.0. Also, it will either get a 3065 or the FP3582HTA.

I have full build plans for it either way.
Also, for exterior, I'm going to re-paint it all black cherry, tint the headlight/ taillights, and throw on some bronze rims. I also have some Corbeau racing seats to go in it

So here's my thread about this car. Expect lots of pictures from me, and I'll keep this updated as I go.

Re: Black cherry Project

Good Lord, three nice 1g projects all with extensive build plans? Can I have one? Do you have a shop, or is it just a hobby? Well either way good luck on them and definately keep us updated with as many pics as possible. Do you have any videos that you've made?

Lol, thanks.. It's just a very passionate hobby. Unfortunetly almost every penny I make goes to saving up for builds
I don't even own a videocamera, let alone know how to upload them. I just steal Brendan's digi camera and snap away... Maybe for Christmas I'll get the D40 I've been asking for

I guess next step for Black Cherry is pulling the engine and work on cleaning up the engine bay (getting rid of things I don't need: CC, AC, ABS, random wires... and litterally cleaning it: Simple green style)
