My first car show!

[74tiiGolf]

Did you use dyno mat? When you get a chance put up few pictures of your sound as well? Thanks, Todd

I'll get some stereo pics up soon for ya. I used B-Quiet extreme and then painted a liquid sound deadener over it. Did most of it when I was young and foolish and went kind of half-assed. If I had to do it again, I'd probably go with the same products but reverse the order and do a much more complete job.

The exhaust I have I put on when I was 19 and it's LOUD. Stahl 4->1 headers with piping straight back to a center-exit Ansa; no center resonator. I'd love more sound deadening :-)

But it's a lot of fun for now.

Wow! Great car, who says big bumpers are ugly? they look great especially with those rally lights, congrads, well done. Any interior pictures?

Thank you! And thanks to everyone who's commented on the car. It's so nice to have a community who knows just how happy I am and can share in that.

I didn't realize it till you said it but it does seem like the rally lights with the big bumpers look better than the-sum-of-their-parts.

Interior pics should be up tomorrow!

And thanks for those extensions + the other item in the package, Al.

Hey Matthew, I see that you removed the trunk torsion bar, what is that on the right, shock absorber?

I will! Word on the street is you have an excellent alternative to those foglight brackets, too.... Still have an extra pair around?

Just a prop with a little place to slot in. The torsion bar was too much for the fiberglass so I did it that way instead. Also just using a prop rod for the hood until a better idea comes along.

Michael, It looks like you have found your new avatar, as well as a new nickname for Bacchus, "PantyDropper"

It could be right up there with Matthew's as one of the coolest avatars.

Sorry for the hijack, now back to the well deserved praise for Matthew's ride.

[TTyMiller]

That's a sweet ride, I don't usually like the 4 fog\driving lights but yours is spot on.

Now get your hands off my sisters....LOL
