Pics are here!

I got after the carbon LSX logo's for the door panels all finished up just now.







Also got the cowl panel all welded and started to do the body work on the car, I am truly amazed at how straight this car is!







Good news is it looks like I will be in town for a while now with no big long trips in the future so progress should stay fairly steady to the end now

Well its been a little while since an update but here it is.

Myself,Nolan,My step dad,my buddy jordan and Nolans room mate all busted SERIOUS ass this week/weekend on the body of the car and I know most of you dont give 2 shits about what I am writing lol so ON TO THE PICS!

Next up Nolan showed off more of his bad ass skills and laid down some color, these pics are all just base coat no clear:

one color painted in base coat:

Time for color number 2

Time for clear coat!!!!

Today me and nolan put the K member back in along with the new front suspension and brakes, put the wheels and tires on and set it down..... SWEET MOTHER OF GOD I could not be happier! once the windows go back in (tinted) and all the rest of the trim I think it is going to be killer!

I just HAD to stick one of the door panels on to see how it looked, Nolan covered the LSX logos in carbon fiber to carry the theme over. Everything is still dusty but I think it will look killerwhen its all done!

Now its time to THRASH on this thing!!!! body still needs a wet sand and pollish when its all done then the pin stripe to break up the two colors but overall I could not be happier with the way this thing is coming out and would just like to once again say a huge thanks to a few people:

My loving and supportive girlfriend Leanne
