Pinky my car is already a full track car. Other than sneaking to an alignment shop it hasn't seen the street in over a year.

I've seen it too...Sebring with a orange cage...actually the color combo reminds me of the Porsche scheme. Looks good. Now if he'd ever get around to claying out all the tire marks in the clear coat

There's a product called Racing Rubber Remover that works quite well. I have some in the garage and have been known to use it every now and again.

I've "washed" it with windex and paper towels while bored at the track before, does that count?

Rotors, full fluids, might do all the bushings. I need a transmission too. Lots of interior cleanup as well.

I'm going to get in the motor and evaluate it as well. Feels like she might keel over at 200k.
I dont mind standing around with a beer telling you what you're doing wrong if you want a hand
You're welcome to stand there and do nothing as usual Brett. I'll wear earplugs.

Here's my list for the new addition:

CV cup swap
Full fluid changes
Fix oil leak
Fix right fender/roll fenders
Patch top
Driveshaft spacers
Clear signal markers
Fix broken glove box
JS2K full HIDs
Moddiction shift knob

I'm sure I'll come up with more stuff as we move along. My buddy and I are going to be working on our cars pretty regularly and if anyone would wanna come hang out, I'm sure that would be fine!

I have a bunch of soft top patch material from my old soft top if you need it. Get the right glue and you are good to go.....best material to fix top with as it's OEM.

Yeah the first thing I did was order some material from someone who's selling patches in the marketplace. Hopefully they will be here soon.
