not really, as i bought the car when it was close to being completed.
had a couple threads:

http://www.lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=22129
there was a lot of misinformation when i bought the car, such as how solidly it was built, the power of the motor, etc. sucks too, because the guy i bought it from refuses to correspond with me anymore. its a shame there are people like this in the car world today.
i found some pics and created a gallery that shows some of the work that was done:

Those rims and the stance set the car off great
I remember when you bought it and all of the issues came up. I am glad it is all worked out now. It is a really nice car. I'm glad to see it got finished right.

its been a long ordeal, and its still not over. even more issues popped up, such as the engine making 100 hp less than advertised, major issues with the carb that was on it (demon 850 circle track carb we found - made for wot all the time!!) the rear axles, bearings and seals had to be replaced, the shop that was doing the work took a chunk of the passenger doors paint of and had to get it repainted, and i have a power steering line leak (very minor) and have yet to get a thermostat put in.
all in due time!!

Nice looking car. I would say you nailed the stance. Looks very sleek. Sorry to hear about the problems from the PO. At least it lets you finish the car the way you want it. I know I know it stinks when people lie.

Great car. I love the stance in the first photo, where it doesn't look completely dropped. Is it somewhat drivable at that height?

the front wasnt completely dropped. you can drive it, but cant turn and a lot of stuff will rub. plus it screws with the pinion angle.
