Title: Finely
Post by: Chris W on February 24, 2012, 04:12:26 PM
After 2 years of work it's driving. Took it for a really short spin and dam if feels good.  :1rij:

It's always harder than you think it will be. Thanks to everyone who helped me get to this point!

great job chris!! it must have felt so good to take it for a rip! more of that to come...right! ;)

it's such a badass ride, i love it. the attention to the subtle details really shines on this car...steering wheel with custom cap, porsche tach w/ gen & oil lights, bitchin fat biscuit interior, and all the tricks done to the chassis...you gotta love it! :cool:

Thanks guys- Here is the real quick of what was done. Interior should be finished in 2-3 weeks then it's time to enjoy!
