I will be updating this post as she moves along.

This is how she looked before I got her from another CTS member. (Bagged_And_Boyds)



This is what I would like her to look like when she is done.


My starting point for the Carrie Make over.




Looking at the damage from the wreck.


Thank you Motion Dynamics for the replacement front Bumper!

New
Oil Pan and Pump
Steering Rack, Pump and lines
Motor and Transmition Mounts
(Thank you Allies Automotive for your help with this.)


New seats for My girl. Look at how bad the stock seats were. (Thank you ilovesoccermoms for your help with the seats.)


The seats were vary tight fitting for me. Ben (TaZZ) and myself fixed that problem by pulling the thigh supports out 10 degrees each way. (If you look at the pic’s above you will see that the thigh supports are vertical, now each one of them is setting at a 10 degree angle away from each other.)


I didn't like the big and bright BRIDE logo on the seats so Dawn (MsPornoRedGT) fixed that for me.



New Bumper cover, Bumper cover rivet kit, Passanger front fender, HeadLight nut kit and Cowl vent grill.

The Head light Header Panel just came in from Resto. Carrie should be at the body shop next week. cheer

It came in with no paint "White" So I just painted it black that way I wont have to take it off later to paint it.



Carrie now has BBK Long Tube Headers and off-Road H-Pipe.
Thank you both Dan, and Laura (Slick)



She is now back home!


The front brake job has started. Carrie will be getting new Brake lines, Calipers, Rotors, Energy Suspension Sway bar kit and Hawk front pads.


Carrie had a fuel leak and several vacuum issues that Grumpy helped me out with, Thank you Grumpy for the injector and vacuum lines. She has been my daily driver since 6-06-08.

Long Tube Header install 6-26-08



FlowMasters Just got here 7-03-08





GT-40P Stage 1 P&P Heads (8-13-08)



SeaFoam and Carrie.. 8-20-08



Carrie has new Weatherstripping 1/10/09

Exactly. I forgot he'd put up the video for sound, but it's not even close to the same (IMO). It sounds way better!
