    Future plans: Car will be getting a wire tuck in the spring along with a full tune. Over the course of this winter the wheel wells will be rolled front and rear, paint and body work finished, and in the spring the spacers will be perfected along with dropping the car another half inch or so. I have tinted fogs and corner markers to put in and I'll be getting some 83 starion taillights (much better looking) as well eventually.

      Thanks for the votes guys. The car needs a thorough cleaning and some detail work and re-wiring when it comes back from paint. I'm on the search for a new job as I'm officially laid off as of the 3rd and I really hope that won't take forever or I'm gonna be in trouble as it pertains to paying for the paint and having any money for future mods etc...Taking it one day at a time.

      Not a bad way to bring in the new year though, thanks again!

        Congrats matt. Nice car. Will be much more fun than the focus when its done and running correctly.

        Sucks about the job loss too. Good luck in your search. Hopefully you get something soon.
