Thanks to Crager for snapping this last weekend. Now all I need to do is detail it and take a few close ups!

Yes, it's some of Cragar's early work. Notice the vibrant use of color and incorporation of the surrounding elements into the centerpiece. Sort of like a young Picasso or Monet.

Right now, just a Borla Catback, sway bars, shocks, Eradispeeds w/pads and an MTI intake. In the process of installing a TNT wet kit.

Future plans? Depends on the funds, but am looking towards a stroker motor with a supercharger. Or maybe just heads/cam/gas. Or maybe a stoker motor with a supercharger and gas - in other words I have no idea!



As far as you driving it, I'll trade you - you detail it out for me and I'll let you drive it!

LMAO!
I need to get some better shots of your car! Since the operator of the camera (me) screwed up the settings, doh! Next set will be pimp, mark my words.



Peace,
Craig.

Craig you need to have him roll with you down the road so you can do your driving photos that you like taking all of the time when we all cruise together.

I soooo lucked out taking those pics with my 35mm. I only wish those pics were with my new camera, or if I could scan them in better. I love those two pics, they are some of my favorites.







Peace,
Craig.
