Here We Come!!!

As of today the car is almost completed.  I was able to put on some finishing touches under the hood, and fire her up for the first time since June 2011.  She runs, and boy does she run good.  When the car was dropped off, it had a huge stumble off the line (amongst other large downfalls) due to issues caused by Justin Merrill at Merrill Performance in San Diego, CA. , now she seems to get a small amount of wheelspin leaving the line even at partial throttle.  Not all is well though, as the alignment is way off and the car tracks horribly due to that and tire wear, but will be corrected this week by the time Eric comes to get the car.  Tomorrow we (Zeke and I) will wrap up a few more things by taking her out for a good wash and wax, and hopefully drop her at the shop so the exhaust can get repaired this week prior to Eric's arrival.  Pictures to come once she is all cleaned up and ready to rock.
