Nah wheels/tires/safety doesn't count.

I know I can get $50 for the cat from a guy in Texas (i gotta call some junkyards around here to see what they offer), and according to past ebay sales we should get between $500 and $1500 for the other interior parts.

Can you get sponsorships?
What are the requirements? Does it have to be road legal?

Unless it's for safety/wheels/brakes/tires/racing gear, which is what we're going for. But I can't have Ground Control sponsor me and claim my custom $2500 coilovers were free.

Anytime during the week during the evening is perfect. We have access to the SAE student garage (full vehicle lift).

If you want to plan out a weekend day, let me know what's good for you.

Hopefully the exhaust goes on early next week so we can drive it on the street...right now I'm afraid to go more than around the block with it.

I'm down for a weekend soon. I'll chat with Mr. STD and get back to you with a date to discuss.
