But I do have a question, why did you build such a badass motor and have all the supporting mods to haul dick but slammed it? Does that help at shows? Or was it your inner muscle car that made you do it? My thought was you could have made the stock parts look just as good without the extra cost. Just something I was wondering

Sorry about not getting to sema
I wanted it to sound good and do a nice burnout but most of all for the Haters lol

This is a work of art, and that in itself should be recognized and appreciated to the fullest. Maybe you don't like certain things like "an fittings" and ground effects/ steering wheel( in my own defense) but does it really matter? You didn't build it, and neither did I. Obviously dumbass comments like these filling most of this thread don't effect the OP just by judging his signature. Lol. Haters gonna hate. Keep on truckin' bro! It looks killer!
Thanks man
Some people aren't as smart as you and don't think the same way lol

Thanks again

Wow bro, that thing is a real pile... everybody sees that the bottom of the transmissions oil pan is super wavy. I can't believe you would put that thing on a car and ruin it like that. Plus, where is the cup holder for the 128oz Mr Big Gulp? I can't cruise without my Big Gulp. Also why did you get rid of those back seats? Totally ruined the car man. You gotta have back seats so you have room for the 450lb bishes, it's the only place they'll fit... those back seats are super useful if you ask me.

lol, now that he pointed it out it sticks out like a sore thumb. What's crazy is the fact that so much has been done that you can pick out like the only few things he did NOT touch in the interior (that and the steering wheel tilt ****, peddles, seat belts). Amazing work on that interior, you seriously went all out!

so... future plans? on to the next project, or are you done for now?
