Finally got the car to a respectable state. I picked it up 2 and half years ago with a straight body and some nasty pealing problems. I needed something with 4 doors and a lot of room for tools and crap for work, before it was a Taurus station wagon but that was just a hold over.
Over the next year it saw various maintenance, cloth sport seats, volvo lip and eventually paint. When it was out for paint I was lucky enough to find a set of basketweaves, sans caps, in the yard on half price weekend. Right after it gets painted by bitch of a neighbor scrapes it coming out of the parking spot! I couldn't prove it so didn't pursue it :(
Threw some H&R's, Koni's, e90 top hats on it along with new shock mounts, strut bearings, subframe bushings. Some time after I made the mistake of sneaking off to the track when the track toy was down and decided the car needed an LSD.
Heres how it looked for better part of 2011:
Spent the next year trying to find the wheels I wanted, friend of mine had them but refused to let them go. Finally sourced a pair with polished lips in France.
