Then, he mounted it on the engine. All he has left to do in these pics is hook up a hose to the oil fill stand and it is fully functional...

You can see the Original Customs concept here... Mark designs things so they 'look' as if they might have been there in the first place. Not intending a "bling" factor. Form and function take equal standing...

Oh damn...

I can't bear to look. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

My car has been moved to the top of McMark's 'Current Project' section on the Original Customs Website.

This can only mean that he has begun cutting it up for the flares (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Hold on to your heart medication. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

The flares are just screwed on for now. Ready to attack them with the welder on Sunday.

Had to fire up the engine to move the car over a little, and it's amazing how easily and smoothly the engine fires up and idles cold. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

Beautiful rims. Wish I had the dough. Did Harvey make the 8.5's for you?

Sorry for stalking... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Your website is bookmarked... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

So I take it you didn't find any surprises under the paint on the fenders?

By the way, anyone interested in some polished Cookie Cutters in 15X7... They are full restorations that have a couple hundred miles on them. Tires go on my 240Z so 'Forgetaboutit' (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Well I'll be! So that is how ALL those other flare installs you've done wound up with speckled glass! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Seriously, I'm not worried. Mark has done many flare installs with very superior results... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Saw your tires and wheels last Sunday, they look amazing, I'm pretty sure they where still there when I left (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

Might see the car Tuesday if I make it out there.

Looking good Rob (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Mark does great work, wait till you see what he's done for my white car.....and what he's going to do after WCR (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Can't wait to see your car finished. Going to be very nice!!!!

The kaleidoscope effect on a sunny day is pretty cool . . . but I'm pretty sure Mark has it all under control.

Car is going to be fantastic, Rob. I have the same wheels from Harvey on my Irish Green car. The guy does A+ work.

I'd like to see how you finish off the bottom of the fender. I've got some ideas but would like to see what you do. That's whats left unfinished on mine

Oh Hell! I can't wait! I went to the OC site and stole these! I'll do the time for stealing Mark's intellectual property! Now that's dead-sexy!
