this is my friend robert who thought it would be cool to spray the roof with green primer, sand and spray green metal flake (still to be added).  after we did the proper body prep of course.

this is me driving my junky old car with no suspension, brakes or wheels that fit..but hey it ran.

also that is me and my buddy robert welding on one of the frames we have laying around the shop.

(top left) this is me cutting one coil off of the new factory springs... the ones that we pulled of the car had 4 coils cut off and the frame dragged the ground.  it also had 4 3/4 drop blocks on the rear which we traded out for 2 inch.  now she sits real pretty.  also we replace the missing sway bar and bushing kit for it.  took about a foot of play out of the steering.  now all we need to do is repair the power steering pump that got ground off of the botom of the car from sistting so low and we will have a really nice driving car. (top right)  that is my buddy vinnie checking out the new springs)

Vinnie practicing his cutting skills...hahaha
