My dad said he's gunna take me to get new wheels and shocks in it, i'm gunna raise the back higher and have huge tires on the back and i think i'll keep the front tires the same size they are now. I was talking to my dad about the inline six and he said he saw them make like 300 horses. I found a whole bunch of crap like a header,a new worked head, and a new intake that can take a 4 bbl carb, also they have superchargers for like 400 -not the engine only has 44,000 miles on it.

It looks good if you like the rough, unfinished look. Makes people think you spent all your money on performance.

you won't hurt anything keeping it in primer until you are ready for paint. keep it. i like the "california suede" look.

Hate to be the Devil's Advocate here but leaving it in primer can be detrimental. Unless you use an epoxy primer, any other type of primer will actually absorb moisture and promote rust. Even if you don't see it you can end up locking it in with color later.
