This is one of my first project cars. It was a 1985 Plymouth Reliant that I picked up for a daily driver. It was origionally brown with a maroon interior. The car was a 2.2 SOHC Automatic with a small 2 barrell carburator on it. It ended up being a project car in school and mostly BOCES autobody class. I ended up doing all the major repairs like replacing panels for rust and dents and painted the car flat black primer. Of course the time it was at BOCES I ended up swapping out the automatic trani twice due to blowing them up doing burnouts. And eventually I ended up doing a manual transmission conversion. Once that trans actually stayed in the car without blowing up I did a few more mods. This car ended up with a Holley 650cfm carb and a few other mods, I'm working on restoring the old pics to post here.
 
This is my 1989 Dodge Daytona that's also a 2.2 SOHC but this one is a turbo. The block was a built using KeithBlack pistons and factory forged rods and crank wih ARP hardware. The first build was using stock components and an aftermarket suppliers rebuild parts. We'll this was a mistake as they sold me parts for a NonTurbo 2.2 and the engine blew shortly after everything was assembled. After finding this out I rebuilt the engine and added a few mods to run 35psi of boost at the flip of a switch and 25psi of boost as a daily driver. The pics here are after I took the car off the road. It was to potent for a daily driver...
