id rather it didnt happen. but it did and im gonna do with it what i want to do. and black is not what i want anymore. i cant say when it will happen, obviously not anytime soon, as i need a job to cover the rest of the body work, 2,000 isnt gonna cover it im sure. although i can look into it. maybe over the winter, maybe next summer, im not in much of a rush, car is looking whooped these days so ill just take the money and sit on it for a bit.

no rush for this, if the car doesnt sell, it doesnt cost me much to keep it. and i dont _have to_ drive it, so i can have it put up for a while, sanding, filling holes, practicing my nasty welding techniques, grinding… whatever. dont hold your breath kids, it might be a while

Dyno-mite! :nod Look like oldskool RUF Modulars. Nice

Oh and run those little bastards through the coals as much as you can. I wouldn’t care if they’re 13yrs old or not. Old enough to make the decision to toss debris at a moving vehicle you’re old enough to get charged in court and pay up any which way possible IMO :angry2

yeah no doubt. im gonna just pocket the money and see what itll cost me to spray the car similar to how i depicted it above… im guessing 3-3,500 for it, if i dont shave the mouldings and the side repeaters, in which case id do satin moudlings, green handles, and smoked repeaters… either way i think it should come out alright
