As Danile stated we found someone to paint the car for trade. Making him 6 paint stands so he can put door/hoods and other parts on for paint.

going to make 6 of these but way better and without the roller.




We alsoi got the cage all papered and taped off for paint.




We also got a better camera just a small 16mp paint and shoot. So no more cell phone pics






This weeks goals are PAINT and to get a lot of the wireing done after paint.

Not much has been done since the last update. The guy that agreed to paint the car flaked out. We can't even get a hold of him. Now in the process of finding someone else to paint it. Its pretty much at a stand still until then. Hopefully something will work out for once.

Thank you.

No sadly it will not be done in time. I've lined up a new painter but he will not be able to get to it for a few weeks. So the new deadline is November before my third baby is born.

Haha Thank you, sorry about your work. The steel is 16g cold rolled. Yes lots of pictures for wiring when we get to that point.


Not much of an update, but we got the car back together and on the ground for the painter to go over it.

Dont mind the side skirt fitment, its just laying there for now. Also the doors had to be stripped back down and are in the process of being redone. From what you can see though is we took a lot of time lining everything up. I hate saggy bumpers!! Also cut the running light hole out cuz the origin fenders dont have them pre cut. Oh and rockin a oem hood now. I felt the vented hood was a lil much.

Thank you everyone for the kind words it really means alot and seeing them gives us motivation. This wouldn't be possible if Troy didn't let me rape his car.
