I appreciate the compliments but feel free to copy this as it won't be like that for long......slightly off topic but the coupe was sold as a "stock" roller, it is now without fuel system, motor/trans, tokico shocks/struts, built 8.8, oh...and did I mention the turbos are gone too... time to find project X, and get some bills paid off in the process....besides, the SARG MJR said she would "get me some more (which I read as BETTER/BIGGER) turbos..... ....back to topic.

PIMP THOSE SALEENS...lol

Re: wheels and tires

Like that link Shorty and thanks ncontt, now that i have seen your car just came bring myself to do that but after you change it maybe i will see lol, just kidding that is the same reason i could not buy a car like Shorty's i really love that color but just could not do it somethings look great just the way they are and it is hard to be creative when you have seen the best way they look like you two have done there but any way back to drawing board and magazines later

Re: wheels and tires

Wheels are one of those things that regardless of what you run, somebody else will have a set.

Only way to add personal touches to these cars is color, interior mods, engine mods, etc
