Very nice gt. Nice omni too.

I agree about the spoiler being needed. I have an 03 gt without spoiler and it looks ugly. I'd even settle for one of those small spoilers that some of the pt have.

I'm happy with my blue pt. Think I might have liked electric blue a little more but I do have the American flag in the driveway. Red mazda6, white lebaron and blue pt.

I actually found one of THESE at the bone yard today by accident for $25. Seem to be nice for an aftermarket piece. Nice thing is that there's no drilling nessary, all 3M tape...

I would have liked to get a factory unit, but for $25 I think that this will do just as well..

A friend of mine had the tires to her Jeep Wrangler replaced at a Big O Tires outlet. They did not tighten the lugs, so when she was traveling at over 70 mph down a long steep hill on a freeway, her front wheel flew off! How she did not roll the Jeep, with its high center of gravity, I will never know, but she kept it upright. She was very lucky she was not killed. Because of that, I ALWAYS check the nuts when I have had the wheels worked on.

Cool PT though! I thought all GTs had spoilers, how did they miss this one?

That spoiler will look good. The only other thing i think you need is the PTeazer bumperette fascia and the full reto grill and you will be kick ass and it looks great in white.

Yeah so did I...We could be wrong though (apparently). I was guessing the previous owner had it smoothened out or something.

Nice pt... But i really want to know about the omni! It looks like the glhs, is it?post a pick of that sweet thing! Are you modding it? 2.2l turbo? I have been looking for a decent one for a year now.

I agree with the omni and wanting more info/pics. I have an 88 lebaron that when I would love to swap a turboII into and swap over to manual if I ever get the last 3 things I need (a donor car, the time and the money)

No its not a GLHS. It actually an 88 Horizon (known as the "Whore") that I bought out of the junk yard for $200. It was originally built and turbo'd by a handful of SV-TD members at my shop in 9 day's with a bunch of used parts that we all had taking up space in our garages. We decided that it was a challenge to take a junkyard car to drag strip to compete at the Cecil County turbo dodge invasion day back in November 2007. It's best run was 14.00@105mph. It has since been been reworked by me over the last year or so.

Here are some pic's in somewhat order...
