That can has a lot..... Where is it going as far as design direction? Hood looks HUGE on there vs on the 'vert.
Glad to see your making progress.
Very interesting direction so far, should be fun to see which way you go with it.
o yes there will be blood...lol im tired of this thing laying around i miss her heck it was alwasy me and her back in the day .nobody touched it ,drove it or got in it with out kicking there shoes ..and then i met thundergirl88 and she destroyed her.....can u say jelouise. and every time i work on her she finds some way to direct my attntion from her.....stand by ill have more when she comes back from the body shop
An ex I assume? Women sometimes just seem to not take care of our prized posessions. My wife has neglected her car and its a lost cause, I told her my Cougar was going to get a manual so she couldn't touch it (Can't drive one) :D.
Don't worry Bear, My wife hates that I'm rebuilding my 87. I think only because it was here before we met, and there were many others that sat in the car before her.
But she loves the vert because it's ours together.
looks god bear!!!!!! i like it!!!!
well shes off to the body shop and there one of my buddies gto vert in k2 that we shot this morning ill get finished pix later but it look killer
My $.02
