Angry Starting Over

]Wassup guys I have a few pics I would like to share with you that I have never posted since I have been a member of CL. I have owned 2 SC's a 93 400 which was totaled and I now own a 94 300. I have done minor mods and I currently have a boat load of parts on the way. So I hope you guys enjoy the pics and if you have any suggestions feel free to fill me in.

These are pictures from the worst day of my life when this crazy b..... totaled my SC 400. I loved this car.

Here is the second most happiest day of my life. The day I got my new SC 300. I loved my V8 but the 6 ain't that bad.

I know you guys like to ride on coils and be low but I live in Baltimore City and we have the worst streets this side of the Mississippi. So I decided to go with the Tokicos instead and these babies just came in today.

These are the pictures of the car after I did the breaks, rotors, oil change and shocks. I would like to give a special shout out and thanks to my man Robert for allowing me to use his garage.
