Default WS6 buildup airbrushing - lid, intake and fuel rail covers

Thought I'd toss out a quick plug for the guys that recently did an amazing job on my 1998 WS6 build. East Texas Muscle Cars took care of the build and Allen Jonez did an amazing job on my airbrushing at a RIDICULOUSLY cheap price!!! Check out the buildup vid...

looks awesome man they did a good job..... id suggest a lil engine clean up to make your new airbrushed stuff pop a lil more... look around on the forums theres recently been a thread about how to hide the wires on the passenger side in the wheel well under the plastic... it makes the engine bay look sooo much cleaner.... other than that alli gotta say is

Default airbrushing

If any of you guys are interested in the airbrush work, call Allen Jonez 315-729-4928 He is very reasonably priced, and as you can see, does amazing work!

Default airbrushing/tunes

Allen is in East Texas. I'm sure you guys could work something out if you'd like to mail any components to him for airbrushing and then attach some type of digital image to an email of what you'd like airbrushed and send it to him (what I did). He's super talented and needs a little extra work. Give him a call!
Glad ya liked the tunes Thought Disturbed would go well with the face off their album cover under the hood.

Default project

The entire project was probably about $4300 or so, face value, but I traded out a lot of it, so bottom line it didn't end up actually costing me quite so much. Just the airbrushing of the lid, intake manifold and the FRC's was $300...cheap for that kind of detail work!!

Default driving

I'm going to speculate it's fun to drive...I got to drive it one day after I finished everything; now it's been raining here for 8 days straight At least I know it's clean, awaiting me in the garage.....That's not a whole lotta consolation when I REALLY wanna drive it haha

Wish I knew the specs on the cam. That was one thing that was installed on the car when I got it, so I have no clue. Considering the car only put down 413HP with that build, it's gotta be a tiny cam. Still sounds great though!
