Snow, anything AWD is not going to be in your $800 price range. Not even a stupid Justy can be found that cheap unless it has (your favorite) a blown motor... and I'm not talking about a supercharger.

I wouldnt consider a DSM a rice car. Just thers to many of them and a lot of their owners arent to bright. But I have a lot of respect for DSM's.

not only that, you're an all wheel drive, flat four powered, mini el Camino with jump seats in the rear.

You just told me last night that you sold your Z and bought two Justys and you're going to turbo the 2-door to 20psi with a T3/04

Well as fate would have it . . . .i got the damn 3KGT VR4!!!!!!!! I wasnt able to snap shots of the before but i have the in progress shots. The whole front end was pushed over but we had it laser lined ans straight in about 6 hours! The only thing holding us up right now is parts, and the damn passenger headlight. It wont ****en line up and sit propperly. other than that its just about done. Aint that some ****, a days work and the frame is cool, got a lil paint on it and just need to replace a few things. The passenger side intercooler, the front bumper, rear bumper and tail lights. She'll be ready in no time. . . .

The rear quater is an easy fix. The only issue was getting the front straightend out. Now that the front is done the rest is a cake walk. It sure helps when you got full access to a shop . . . . .
