Looks great!!! Some people just have way too much talent!!!!!!:LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
Cool flames on the engine and trany, I wonder if he puts flames on the car.

SWEET JESUS!
If my engine was ever that clean, id think it was a miracle.
That is wicked awesome though.
ya, that is 'hot'
this is the finished car
Wow, really a lot of very hard work in the whole car. Nice work.
Don
WOW But that seems a little much for a part you can hardly see, now if it was in a fed where you would see it, would make more sense.
Looks cool. A little much but still awesome. Also even though you cant see it oh well, I like when customers bring in a vehicle and you put it on a lift and it's all totally nice underneath and inside. First off it shows they take care of their vehicle and take pride in making what you can't see very nice and second off, it's cleaner and easier to work on it! No rusty bolts to break off, crap falling in your eyes, etc etc.
Clearly a show car! I've painted frames and engines to match, but never gone as far as graphics. I WILL keep this in mind for the right project. Thanks. :-)
Same for me. In an open hood roadster that would probably be pretty cool.
cool but not practical every rock chip would drive you insane! trust me my motor was yellow and tranny to! if your that kind of hotrodder :LOL: but i do have to admit it does look pretty nice
If you get rock chips on a show car like that, it's cuz somebody didn't sweep the floor in the trailer!!!! Show cars do not have to be practical, just good lookin'!!!!!!Quote:

I knew she was too old to even notice, so I didn't get mad at her, but I was upset about the difficulty in repairing it. My wife started nagging me endlessly about why I would paint the car this way for street use? Finally, it came to me, and I told her.....
..."Because a custom painted car, with a scratch or rock chip,.... still looks far better than a boring one-color paintjob, with a scratch or rock chip"!
I don't know if others can see the logic in that, but I stopped getting upset when it would happen. :-) (BTW, I am still custom painting, but my "ex" is history.) LMAOROF!
I like how you worded that. I will be sure to keep that one in the back of my head so I can use it later on. :D
