Default Its finished!

I dont know if anyone saw my post on the thanksgiving thread, but the Saturn is complete! My friends and I started about 8 am thanksgiving day and the motor was in by 1030, and I finished all the wiring and made sure everything was right by 1. It was driving by 3 pm. Let me tell you, this thing is a beauty. Runs smooth, started immediately. Now with 4 people in the car you dont even know they're there, before it would struggle.

Cant wait to step into it. 230/500 break in miles so far, after that, the local honda guys better watch out cause this thing is going to be quick! I hope it will outrun my buddies oldsmobile too haha.

Dont worry, Ill have a video for everyone soon

We've come to expect Octavious to do things above the average joe.

That Saturn looks nasty. Probably A LOT of fun to drive!

Who's Monte is that in the background. Reminds me of my youth when a few of my buddies had G-body Chevys
