Default My Cars Home!!!

Thought I would start a new thread since the car is back home from Race Rodz. Chris did an awesome job on it and I'm very stoked! He drove all day to deliver it but got stuck in traffic and by the time we unloaded it it was dark out so today you get garage pics. He's on his way home now...300 more miles and he will be home!!

The color is awesome and I can't wait to roll it out into the sun! It needs a bath as there's still some compound here and there on it...but it looks awesome anyways! As you can see we couldn't wait to put the Fikse's on! The gaps on the car are awesome as well as the spoiler!

Thanks Chris for an awesome job!

BTW, that's Chris' dad and I in the first pic and Chris and I in the second pic...great guys! Also, Rob (96z28ss) stopped by, his car will be heading down to Race Rodz in a couple months...I think '08 will be a great year for Chris!

The paint is cool. I think your car is unique, and will be timeless!

Thanks! Timeless is exactly what I wanted/need as I'm not a rich man and need a car that will 'fit in' for many years to come! We figure that I can change the wheels if styles change...but the main car is timeless enough to last a very long time.

Here's a pic of me with my son Bryce seeing it for the first time, I was asking him if he liked it...the answer, YES!! With a big grin!
