    Thanks. The car was painted way back in the 70's. All i have done is clay the finish and a little wax. CLeans up pretty good. Its a nice 10 footer. If i ever decided to repaint the car I would do it just like this. Im a "less is more" kind of guy. I like the kind of things that real car people notice, but normal people would never think twice about.

    It would be pretty easy to get the car to sit that way, less than a weekend job for the stance! Looks great tho, definitely very pretty... Goodstuff!!

    I know it wont take alot of work. THe only issue is the front tires would need to be smaller so they wont rub. THe inner fenders on these cars dont allow much lower than this with the size im running. I could maybe get it down a little bit more. the front only rubs when im going over bigger bumps, so i know if i went a little lower it would rub on all the "intermediat" bumps haha! I have two sets of lowering blocks for the back i can use, 2 inch and three inch. RIght now I only have 1.5 inch blocks in the back.
     
  8. That looks real good Baggs!! Nice clean car! If I might add 2 cents - why not just lower the rear as you have photoshopped and leave the front as is (so as to be level, low & serviceable); and paint the visor white to appear less add-on and more part of the roof. Just some thoughts.. :eek:

    Very cool ride!
