Default Another Ohio Nube

Hey everyone, My name is Mike (obviously) in from columbus and just bought my first TD friday. Its a 89 daytona shelby with T tops completely rebuillt bottom end with forged pistons,clevit bearings an venolia piston tops,and a 3" exhaust from turbo back currently its running about 7psi. its also had the trans rebuilt recently.

The car runs very strong, it need tires and shocks and struts bad I can get a 4th gear wheels spin really easy so im look'n for tires to put on this winter for nexr spring. Im planning on repainting it this winter and adding a bigger turbo and intercooler along with a bunch of gauges.

I uploaded pics to the gallery last night, im not sure if they are still there or not if not LMK i'll try posting them
