Know anybody with a 79 mexico???? am already on it, gotta be worth sumat!

just been out for a drift in the wet its awesome but needs an LSD, stiffer suspension, bigger engine so i dont look like a dick in the dry, trying to do wheelspins with only 1 wheel spinning up. Really cant wait till i get it sorted, just need a cash injection!

the mex plate looks class, try and take as much weight out as you can. those doors weigh a lot more than you think. take the glass and regulators out and put some lexan in. will shave some vital kilos.
