Thanks for bringing the CR over to my house this past weekend for a Saturday wrench session! I can't wait to read your write-up and see the pics. The Feezyization process has begun!!!

Can't wait for the car to get a little further along in the process so we can do some real photos.

I'm honestly a little surprised you two haven't done a shoot already!

I planned on doing it this past weekend, but the white CR was pretty dirty, and we spent about 8hrs straight wrenching and cleaning it. Plus, the other ABP CR did not show up. I am going to try again this coming weekend to organize a three way...photo shoot that is

Our cars did get to hangout together though and go for a cruise. I gave Feezy my car and I drove his car lol. I had more fun in his car though, just ask!

I looked up in the rear view mirror and I saw my car coming around the turn sideways.

I had the car cleaned up and ready for a few pictures of how it sat, but I had a PDR guy come out to my place and by the time we were done the car was trashed. The PDR guy and myself spent over four hours working on the car. I would disassemble things and he would knock the dents out. If you ever go to remove some dents from the hardtop you need to be prepared. You have to disassemble the entire thing down to the frame. It was slightly unnerving, but I got it done. Thankfully I remembered how put it all back together too!

I'm working on it Gusy! I think it's best if I start another build thread for the new car. I'm working on typing it up right now!

My ideal setup is to get a CR that i can race in "stock/street" class for autox and mod the other one. And have two hardtops to switch around for fun, the CR would complete that "want"

Did you sell the Mugen ap1 exhaust????
That is pretty much what I'm going for. The CR will never be modified past the point of being useable. It's really to bad the CR isn't Apex Blue Pearl. I could throw the red hardtop on it, with some white wheels and roll around like Papa Smurf.
I wish you had found one, just so I could see that.
