Since I'm posting, I thought I'd share some pics of my current ride. Some of you may have seen it in the "New Members" section, but here are more pics...

It's a 2001 Ford Focus ZX3, lowered 2.5" with SC Racing springs, 17 x 7.5" Motegi MR12's on 205/40 Sumitomo HTRZ II tires. I've added a Fiber Images carbon fiber hood, Kaminari front lip, tinted the windows and most importantly, designed and sprayed the paint myself. It's all DuPont Chromabase and it was my first paintjob ever after a 14 week class.

Let me know your thoughts...whether you like it or hate it. I know it's not a true Hot Rod, but I like to think of myself as a New Age Hot Rodder.





Here's a close-up of the blue metalflake I put in the black stripe...





Just for the record...if I could afford one, I'd have a 1966 Chevelle or a 32 Highboy.
