SpendOne's newest crapbox

As a majority of you guys knew, I sold the DSM last year. I have been in the DSM scene for about 10 years. The cars were great, parts were readily available and cheap. Couldnt really beat it for the power output with minimal mods. I sold my car b/c I was given an offer that I couldnt refuse. So the car went bye.

Now I could of built another DSM but I really didnt want to start from the bottom again. Plus I also wanted something different that could be just as fast if not faster then the DSM. So I went on a search and weighed alot of options and possibilities. Alot of factor came in to play such as pricing, parts availability, support (forums), and such. I thought of 240's, 2jz sc300's, mustang, LS1 F-bodies, and so on. I searched around for a bit and kept my options open then one day I found what I have been looking for. The car has came along way from when I got it being that everything had to be done or redone. I just let the pics show all. Just to let you guys know, yes it is a street car.

Haha I love this car... I hope to see it out more this summer.
So what makes a car a street car or not? If the owner is crazy enough to drive it on the street?

I knew it wasn't going to be your normal rx7 when I saw the monster tires in the rear.

Cars legit. Inspection, registration, plate, all lights, and even wiper blades!

383 stroker, GN 8.5" rear/4.10's, full tubs.

Ive been picking at the car as of late. Fixing little issues as they come a along. I just converted the system to manual brakes b/c I couldnt build decent vacuum for the booster to work. The brakes feel a lot better now though.
