Now, just cut 3 or 4 inches off of the muffler tips and you'll be good. :p

Oh yeah! I can't stand that thing! lol - I'm just going to replace the muffler at some point but until then, I think I'm going to cut off the angle part of the tips and possibly even paint the muffler body itself black.

Nice dude! Looks like a solid project car. I still think about a 24v swap in mine.

Anywho, you have pics of your old bobber? I thought about building one of those too. For like 2k, you can have a pretty cool bobber.

Thanks and I actually never got any good pictures of it but here is an old one, nothing was bolted down, it was just to give me an idea. And the tank was replaced w/ a stretched peanut tank.

It was a 1980 Honda CB750 DOHC - hardtailed, stretched 5.5" and lowered an 1". A 180 rear tire with a disc brake from a cbr600. etc...

cool, where in ny did you get it?

any plans to ditch the painted side/bumper trim?

also, you think 4.10 is a good idea in an m50 car? i have a 3.25 in my s50 car and my buddy has a 3.15 in his, seems even 3.73 would be high.

my buddy's screennames are all joshzooyork etc. his current computer company is the computer zoo. he's a zoo york whore, been like that since back in the Mixtape days

He was from the Syracuse area, but we met near Albany. The car is most likely getting painted a different color but if I do stick w/ the alpine, I will definitely paint the trim/accents black!

The 4.10 is definitely going to be changed but I do 90% city driving so I think the 3.73 is best for now until I turbo it, then I will go down to a 2.93 most likely...

And that's really funny about your friend w/ ZY! It was the same for me, I've only ridden ZY decks for years! I can't even remember when I started liking them... lol - I even have a custom black/silver euro plate from my old car that was 'SK8ZOOYRK"
