This car makes me laugh. I had the great honor of being parked next to him at the LSX shootout.

Is it painted or a wrap. There is a picture of a wakeboard boat done the same way, but it was a wrap. Different

Read the article in High Performance Pontiac and then give your opinion. The car is built tight from the ground up, and that paint job is one of the best ever (over 700 hand-painted 'rivets'). Like the look or not, the quality and originality is there. Even the interior is dyed green and the upholstery is bomber jacket leather. This car can show and race. Just because the look is radical, it doesn't make it cheesy. This car is a tribute to war heros, and to the team that built it.

I have that article....to me it is totally ridiculous. Sure is original, has a lot of time and effort, but so did "Godzilla" (the movie)...see where Im going??

I like it and admire the work and time that went in to the paint job, but I would never paint my car like that.

I appriciate all the compliments that have been recieved on the car. It was a blast to build and be a part of the whole project. To those that dont like it thats cool too, to each there own. The car just sits in the show room for people to look at and will be used in about 10 drag race events locally this year.
