Update: Jan. 2, 2011
Decided that I would update the first post in my thread for any new people to see right off the bat. I will update this post as well as make a new post when more things have been done!
Didn't actually get any pictures of the VERY start of it, but close enough. '87 BII that I picked up for $375 CDN, with 265,xxx km on it, all it needed was a driveshaft. Original CV driveshaft crapped out. Imagine this with 205/75R15 winter tires, and a chrome grille and that's what I started with. On with the pictures!
After a little lovin'...
Plans for the very near future:
2" body lift
2" coil spacers, Expo springs/Belltech 6400's
Major fender trim
33x12.5 TSL's
