Sorry for the lack of posts...
To my very limited viewers.
I would like to apologize for not updating my blog as often as I would like to. I know some of you still check from time to time to see if there are any updates on the model A or anything similar, and for that I appreciate you. My blog on the other hand is not filled with random pics or re-blogged pics, its more for the documentation of my model A and the Corpse Wheelie bowling team,we bowl one tournament a year which is coming up at the end of the month. There have been some life changes as of lately which consist of being unemployed to getting a new job as a boiler maker and let me tell you that consumes most of my time. So back to the model A topic, Casey of Lancaster Motor Sport and I talked and we plan on having the model A like 95% done by new years so expect some sort of update by then.
Thank you for your patience and Corpse Wheelie wishes you all happy holidays.

back at the shop
Well last week the model a went back to the shop, she has been waiting patiently for us to have some free time to work on her. I am hoping that this will hopefully be the final push towards getting her up and running.

My 05 wrx wagon
I know this is a little off topic compared to my other posts as of lately, but i decided to spice up my daily driver. its a 05 subaru wrx wagon, has some minor mods, its fun as hell to drive, hauls dogs, bikes, tools, hot rod parts. Hell ive managed to stuff a model a frame inside this thing haha. So, ive been needing new tires since i bought this car and i disliked that it had rota's on it as well. I contacted my buddy Yuta, you may know him for his crazy ass 240z, Well he found me some 18x7.5 volk LE28's, he refinished them and powder coated them to a solid almost oem volk bronze finish but way cooler as it is a bit more metallic and textured. he did this at the shop he works at called wheelflip. so yeah im super happy with the new wheels onto pics

im spending money...
Its been a while since i last updated the blog. well today i said fuck it and dropped some cash on the motor. getting pretty close to completing the motor so after that there is no excuse. id like to thank Casey once again for taking the time to help me pick out parts and summitracing.com for having all the parts in and having great prices. so yeah no pic updates yet, but i ordered new edelbrock heads, edelbrock intake manifold, summit cam, a distributor, lifters, gaskets, and a carb stud kit. so yeah... this seems like an endless project for me, but things are looking good. wish me luck.

street life
she keeps getting closer to completion and Casey teased her a little by rolling her out onto the street just to let her know where her place will be when she is ready to roll.
Pete got the first ride in the A, im pretty jealous
she has a nice ass
once we throw in a complete motor/ more weight in the front it should even out.
