Re: Motor Cities Chat Thread!
Yeah...you could get it done pretty cheap. The body is going to cost you, but as long as you find a solid frame to start with, you should be just fine.

Re: Motor Cities Chat Thread!
i have looked at good glass body kits and looked like i woudl be in around 3g's if i remember right, then paint and all. But with a Michigan winter I don't think I even want to mess with a metal body on a daily driver that will get covered in salt all the time.

Yeah, the salt does take a toll on steel bodies, especially older ones, that have much less galvanized panels than todays cars.

Re: Motor Cities Chat Thread!
Pretty much, and eh I am not one to care about how pure my Bronco is. My Fiance will probably kill me when a full fiberglass body just happens to show up in the garage one day and take over her parking space but she'll have to get over it.

Re: Motor Cities Chat Thread!
Murdock.

I just noticed in another post you said you have a Superchip in your car. You like it? I just ask because I just got one free with my $20.00 SVT ECU to swap into my car since it is a full SVT Engine and was wondering how worthwhile it is.

Re: Motor Cities Chat Thread!
It is really hard to say. I swaped in the chip at the same time I installed the headers, exhaust and cone filter. I can say that it needs to get tuned, because it is running rich. Superchips programmed a general tune, assuming something for the intake and exhaust I have.
