BIG REDS wanna be Nick Cage Build thread.

nah, It might get pushed from april to may if anything.

So is this thing going to be aout and driving around during the summer with a ballin interior and rocking the primer?

Will be bad ass regardless

yea prob, I don’t think ill be able to afford to paint it this year. but It will deff be out and about.

today’s update, nothing big I only had about 2 hours to work so. I stripped the paint off the roof, and found some surface rust underneath. So it hit it with the sander with some 60 grit to get most of it off then sprayed some rust neutralizer from eastwood co, followed by epoxy primer. There are a few dents at the rear of the roof that ill hammer/dolly out tomorrow, but so far no bondo!:bowdown

Cant wait to see it man, will look baller in primer , will just be nice to see it out and about

Also, your wasting no time man, props to ya!

damn yea bigred’s pluggin along fast!

nice man

I also ordered these today

nice! cant wait for this thing to be road worthy

yea I still have to order all the lights and shit too. the movie car used full PIAA lighting in front and shelby taillights neither of which are cheap.

holy fawk dude your not wasting any time…

You dont have to answer this if you dotn want to but is this all your own money going into this or is this a project with the old man as well? From what you said it seems as he really wanted you to get it too

I know my old man helps me whenever he can with the Z

nope its all my money/time. gloves is helping by letting me use the garage which is fine with me. Hes been supportive about the whole thing which makes it a lot easier.

Then more power to you man! Im sure you’ve worked your ass off for it!

And yea its deff a lot easier when the old man is supportive about it! Belive me I know, everyone else in this house thinks im nuts, my old man loves lending a hand thou

i bet, you do a good job at finding deals though too!!!

yea it sucks sometimes like today working 3-10 albany med ER valet peoples shitty ass cars for no tips :retardclap

I don’t care for the end product at all, but MAD respect for taking on a project like this, far more paitence than me.

to bad you werent working when my daughter was born, you woulda gotten a nice tip from me :lol

I tipped that mofo good… gave him a $20
