After all the trials and tribulations of past shop screwups, shoddy work, broken parts from dismantlers, delayed shipments, et cetera, she's back in my hands, and it feels damn good.

I want to thank all of my friends who helped me out while the wagon was down.......it means a lot to me that you guys were there when I needed you.

Ed and Seri, for being badass and hooking me up with the drift car for way longer than either of us thought it would take, and never stressing.

Rich, for driving me all over hell's creation to meet people, to pick up cars, and being available wheneverI needed help.

Josh and Deede, for hooking it up with random parts along the way as well as some key parts to finish up the project.

Rabbit, for helping out with all the block cosmetics and for saving my *** when I needed help the most.

Tony at the yard for helping me out with all the little parts for the 4.11 conversion.

Nick, for the blingin' new rims.

The rest of you dorks for all the moral support along the way.

And last, but definitely not least, Paul, for taking on a basketcase of a car with umpteen different issues for months, never complaining, and delivering something that is much better than I had any right to expect given the abuse the car has been through over the last 7 years.

I can't tell you how much I appreciate all the help. You guys are the best friends I could ask for.

 

good stuff dude! glad to see the wagon back in action. did i read that right, did you convert to a manual?

 

wagon powa'!

those wheels are seks on that thing!
glad to know its back on the road.

where's the wagon mafia stickers?

 

Nice rims.

 

Nope, still an auto, but a JDM 4.11 auto. Drivetrain is completely from a Japanese 2.5.

 

The Don keeps his mafia stickers low-key until we get the new logo out........it'd be weird to have a picture of my car......on my car

There's a text one on the windshield and one that wraps around the wiper. I'm going to do a bigger banner with the new logo when Scott finishes it.

 

Glad to see her back up and running.

 

Looking good :-)

 

Hooray!!! Good to see it on the road again! :banana:

btw, i hear you dropped an STi block in there

hehe

glad to hear the wagon is back.

No worries on the help....

FYI--- i'm not allowed to drive past 11pm anymore though.

Josh.....thank you for the baggie out there in the cuts.
i can only imagine what a CHiP would have said if he rolled up last nite.

 

Hawt.

 

Yay!!! I'm so glad it's all done. Back to bombing away in the Hoopty!

BTW did the nut help?
