    Anyone ever try some of that aerisol spray foam? The type you spray in and it expands and fills everything? Wondering how much that crap weighs, it would be great for rocker panels if done properly.

      it works great. i used to have one of those old rwd 80s corollas (that the drifters made so popular) and that was a common trick to stiffen the chassis. its really really light. go for it.

                You could could also find poly-fil at any walmart. I have some in the closet thats been sitting there for about a year I might put it to use.

                EDIT: Isn't polyester highly flammable???

                    Painted door handles

                    I added factory painted door handles to the 323. Not a big change in the scheme of things but since the 323 models just got black plastic handles this makes a nice little addition.

                    here are a few pics.

                      Polyester more so melts then burns... it wont' be anyworse then the other plastic & cloth material anywhere else in the car.

                      P.S. I preferr the craft stores... Surprisingly its a great place to meet women....lots of em in there & alot of them are really decent.

                          Yeah that little car is mint, that's my wifes baby. I looked for a long time to find one that clean, it has zero rust. The friggen lock on the drivers door is new, I had it rekeyed at a locksmith to the origional key, but the stupid bugger did not have a black escutcheon, so every couple of months I have to repaint it.

                              They only fit 4door models of the pro. But I bought mine from u-haul. it cost $139...
                              all other hitch places in my town had them aswell (special order of course)

                              They can also be found on the net for aroudn the same price buy ya pay shipping.

                              I pulled my 4wheeler to the car wash today. Trailer weighs about 400# and and the quad wieghs about 700. Car handled it good, stops it wth no problem, little sluggish getting goin, but its a sohc car so thats exspected.
