A little history on the car, it use to be redrum123's car. The one that threw out the flywheel during a pull.
I am the 3rd owner since then. It has yet to run but has had lots of work done to it.
As it sits rite now its just a shell , no interior, motor, trans, suspension or wiring. Just has a roll cage, fuel cell and a auto rear end in it.
I have a lot of work to do to it but it won't take me long.
My plans are to finish the awd system, make it 5speed (untill I rebuild the auto trans I have) , take motor and turbo set up from my talon and put it in the colt.

So far I have
Built head with BC springs,272 cams
Eagle/Ross 9.0:1 motor
Jmf smim
FP 3065 BB turbo.
Fmic set up.

Stock 5speed trans with vce installed so I can fwd on dyno.
Act 2900 clutch
Fidanza fw

Fic 1150 injectors
Fpr
Gm maf

Parts I need
Ecm link
Fuel system for fuel cell
And find the rite front axles ( which I'm still unclear about)
Drive shaft.

Pics as it sits.

I hope you know you cannot use that rearend with a 5 spd trans.. they are different gearing between 5 spd and autos.
but other than that very nice start..and good project.

Why's that?

I'm just being lazy and don't want to make the mounts for the drive shaft.
