So, here's the plan so far.
Derek and Eagle are in charge of the motor, while my father and I are in charge of the chassis. At the moment Derek and Eagle have torn apart the motor, found the leaky gasket, but also found some cracks on our head. At the moment they just dropped an undisclosed amount on a new head with adjustable jet valves, as well as an extra block if we need. I keep hearing talk of a new turbo as well, but I have no idea what exactly is going on with them for the most part.
Now for my side of things. We are planning on getting a pre-bent cage from the website (http://autoweldchassis.com/rbc.ivnu) and I'm also thinking the kirkey econo drag seat will work alright for us as well. A few of us are of the bigger build, so hopefully this will not be a problem. As the car sits now, last I was able to work on it we tore the thing apart, emptied out the interior, and exposed everything we didn't need.
Here's some photos we took of ripping stuff out.
We have a pile of keeper parts, somewhere we scored an s14 radiator, hopefully we can manage a ghetto fabbed V-mount setup if it all works out
These seats are way too cool, if no one buys them I want to make office chairs out of them.
The dash was terrible to remove as well
a terrible mess

Derek doing all the work
So far we just tore the car apart, I'm in the middle of a terrible 12 day straight work week but after this I want to head over and get the sound deadening out. It's getting the junk out that's easy, putting stuff in is the hard part.
