since i have no progress to report i'll just repeat my plans. at least make it look like i've got somethin' done...

my brother is givin' me a sweet deal on a couple gauges and two seats with 5 point harnesses, so first thing we'll do (hopefully) is gut the interior, add cage, make dash, install new gauges/stereo/what have you, and then concentrate on the motor swap.

as far as the motor swap goes, hopefully all i need to get is an e-fan, maybe a fuel cell, and... well hopefully that's pretty much it.

as far as supsension goes, in the next few days i think i'll add another leaf or two to the front packs. they tend to work a lot more than the rear, so my theory is if they're a little stiffer the back'll have to work more...  :dunno:
