    Saw this rod today and I have to say I'm impressed. The windshield is fabulous, the wheels, engine and stance are perfect. I'm loving the car, oh and the paint is unbelievable. Absolutely killer!! Thanks for bringing it over. Might have to go back tomorrow and take a second look. Gorgeous!!!

    Beautiful car! I like the front shot that shows the body is lower than the tires. A well deserved trophy! What else have you built? We wanna see 'em!

    I love the pickup, but I REALLY love your coupe. I've been building my coupe in my head for the past year or so, and when the time comes and I have all of the right parts, it'll look a lot like yours does. Congrats on knowing what's kool man!
