About this Current Vehicle:
Purchased in 2004, this Dodge Aspen SE had 25,427 miles when bought for $2,900. Originally bought as a replacement for a 1980 Roadrunner sold five years prior to this, this car has earned itself its own unique personality much like the former Roadrunner.
This is my first car, and I never intend on getting rid of it.

To-Do List:
Yank out the rear seats

Build up the 360
Get the 904 build into a A999-spec racing automatic
Upgrade the suspension (new shocks and struts, sway bars, etc.)
Upgrade the brakes
Lighten up the car to sub-3,000 lbs.
Of course, after that's done... I'll take the slant six, twin turbocharge it, and then proceed in putting it in a heavily modified... golf car.
