personally, I liked the steel braided gas line that he left out in the open to show off, instead of running it through the panels to hide it.

no doubt, but that still doesnt hide the fact that he didnt even attempt to clean or mod the engine

i HAVE TO SAY.. I give the guy credit. Really. He built a weird looking piece of rice.. but they BUILT IT. It doesnt look like ramone down the block with his falling off pastic body kit. It is professional. Granted I wouldnt be caught dead on the same block with it.. but hey.. if thats your thing.. he did good. As for the engine.. eh.. I definately think he could have put just ALITTLE More into the engine.. like A MOD. lol.

The filtered hood was cool though. Come on.. that took talent to make it. No it would looke STUPID AS ALL HELL on our cars.. but on the cars that are built looking like polish space crafts.. it is pretty cool..

That is a lot of fabrication, only to leave the crappy interior and engine compartment. Tsk tsk tsk!
