My lil red wagon

Hello!!
This is Rupert, I saved him from certain death at a junk yard after my friends dad let the timing belt go too long and busted up the valves. I picked him up with the intentions of a simple daily driver.
Original cost $100.
5 weeks of blood sweat and tears later, I can now terrorize the snowpacked streets of denver and make it up to the slopes with my VTEC 4X4. He needs a little more tuning and I'm thinking about maybe throwing a supercharger on it, but with 240k I might save the forced induction for something else.
Enjoy :D

For now its the daily driver, with no specific plans as of yet, besides getting maintenance done. I am going to do some kind of adjustable suspension. I'm a sucker for steel wheels tho, but I'm going to put some sticky tires on when summer comes back.
I also have to work out a few more bugs with the idle and search for a p28 for a manual transmission. In the mean time I get to tell my smart ass friends that only the cool kids have permanent engine lights.
I'd like to do some autocross eventually and I'm tempted to try some ice racing.

with how many miles are on that motor. If you beat it up in some racing it may go out on you real quick

That is a good point, but ice racing sounds like so much fun...when I had the head off, I could still see the hone marks in the block and I cleaned off the carbon off the tops of the pistons and it isn't burning any oil yet. I bet I could get a few races in while I save up for new parts =)
