I finally delivered this car to its owner a week ago. I had it for a year and a half. Work included total disassembly, custom steel rear flares, reinforced chassis, six conversion, full chassis paint job (subbed out).

You can see that the powder coated caliper matches the interior color

Hi Chris,
I like the flares a lot! Nice job. I plan to mention in my video that a person could make the shoulder area of the fender stick out more if they like, just like yours are. A very nice look, thanks for posting it. John www.ghiaspecialties.com |

Chris Looks great, kind of suprised you didn't ditch the side pimples? Especially since you have clear front lenses.
The seats look similar to Rengade Hybrids?? What are they. CCLINCREEPERVILLE |

Very nice !
I luv them rear flares. Is that the car with the infamous Velious oil tank?... did you get it to work? Whatcha' got for a muffler there?......I'm still looking for a lighter one. |

Very clean looking car - and great flares.
Did you really put a sub in the front trunk? What did you do to port the sound into the cabin, or are you relying on transmittal through the chassis? Tell me more. Do you have hydraulics in each corner? :-) Fiid. |

Awesome car...love those flares...not my colour (red) but appreciate the work on the interior.
Sub woofer will probably vibrate the front hood loose. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

The sub frequencies will have to travel through the chassis I guess. The sound system was a deal between the owner and a car audio shop. No hydraulics at the corners but the rear bodywork lifts up and spins. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |
