    Hey Anson the Durocco still rules.:Thumbsup: Lots of snow sliding fun available. Heck you can even drive on Mt Zion road now that it's frozen over. :D

    With some clever re-routing of the exhaust you too can have a hot seat. :D

    Welded rear diff = frequent broken cv axles. I really would like a proper LSD at each end but that would cost more than the entire project.

    I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen this in person.

    Really cool project.

    Thanks guys, it's been a bunch of fun.

    Old video from before the color change, it was running a 1.8L front engine and a 2.0L rear engine at this point.

    I'm sorry sir, he just kept calling and showing up at weird hours. Had to do something to get him off my back. I assumed he'd back it into a tree and give up on the first try but here he is almost 10 years later still going like mad.

    I have no snow tires mounted for the old crust this year, putting my energy into the M3. Hoping to do some ice racing in Michigan as soon as possible.

    Edit: ice racing the M3 that is, durocco is too miserable to drive for long distances... no seat heaters.
