No name yet but heres one of the latest builds at Violetto Autoworks, its stock frame with full air ride tech. suspension and will have a Wegner built ls motor 4l80e trans. I'm thinking yellow with a white top and big 5 spoke wheels but that could change. I already have the bottom of the car rhino lined and the car is put back together for mock up. As for these first couple of pics the previous owner decided to get a little crazy with the sand blaster and wrecked the roof, so I decided to put a modern looking slider in it I think it looks pretty damn good, it still needs some hammer and dolly work but its close. thanks for looking Telly

looks good! what car did the roof come off of?
is it the newer kind that when opened it hides in the panel?

It was that or a 2hr ride one way and a day in a junk yard and a $650 roof cut, besides the old guy that owns the junk yard is an ass. And I think its going to look killer!!!! Different strokes for different folks.
