  4. Well, I traded in the Torrent for a Sport Trac. Needed something able to more than 3500 lbs. So this fits the needs of my life. I will actually miss the torrent. I really enjoyed it a lot! Was an 08 and still had under 19k on it. But I did swap out 22" for stockers so it doesnt look as good now IMO. But here is the new vehicle.

  5. you didnt wait long enough between coats. If you read the paint can itll tell you I think to wait 7 days or something like that. Just respray it silver and let it sit and properly cure. With it being cold try putting it in a window where the sun can hit it to speed up drying. Hope this helps.

    Who needs a dash anyways or a airbag? Cant wait to get my fiberglass one in.

    Plus took out the heater, a/c and smog stuff. No need for that crap anymore.

  8. says 150k but I dont think its working anymore. So who knows. Its almost all stock so I am going to do the common things for the 5.0. Plugs, wire, Cap, intake, headers, panhard bar, shocks, springs and some other handling items.

  9. picked up a 94 GT for $1k. prepping it for mostly drifting but will also do some road racing in it too. Started stripping everything out of it already. I will post progression photos here and there.

  10. Well im home now and still have the GXP. Test drove it and damn it handles great and has some big balls!!! But i felt it hadnt been kept up by previous owner. Front bumper scratched, rear bumper scratched, hatch seal falling apart, carpet in cargo area torn/missing, and bowtie falling apart. Guess they had a white dog cause I found a lot of hair. If they were willing to let all that happen to vehicle i didnt feel great about the drivetrain was handled. For all I know they never changed the oil. Just didnt feel great about it. So I am here still and guess I will start working on a few projects for the GXP.
