well its official... i opened small can of worms when i decided to get ready for AutoX by cleaning the trunk...

^^ thats what the trunk looked like after just a few minutes of cleaning it... it was WAY worse when i started. apparently a bottle of oil of some kind was placed under the mat and was forgot. yeah it blew up or was punctured and the WHOLE bottom of the trunk was soaked with oil... its soo bad that some of the sound deadening could be pealed off with you bare hands. yeah it was that bad. that big ol uncolored spot was where some of the sound deadening stuff was at that i could peal off... needless to say that i cleaned everything up and removed all the stuff that was under there for now. later today im going to be removing the speaker box, my rear seats and amp for even greater weight loss.
ill be in SM thanks to the motor swap so this is just one of those things im allowed to do. i was considering taking out the passesnger seat too but i might give some friends a ride so i dont think ill do it. im also hoping to have video and possibly pictures too. we will see what happens.
