    Drove 1488 miles round trip. Got it unloaded and started going to town on it. Its my first build with my Uncle's help and its on thin budget. My goal is to get it to the jalopy showdown this year.

    No its the orginal frame with new steel added to it. My flavor is sorta nostiglic, pantina look, and as cheap as I can do it to just be able to drive it but everything is being done with safety in mind as well. I have a ton more pics on my comp of the progress.

    It's aaaaahhh.... different. No offense man, but the gauges look like there out of a 89 Honda Civic and the grill is busy, lame, and spider webes are not new or different.

    and there not outta civic. I hate fart cars. there Aurora gauges. you also gotta keep in mind Im still building. the finishing touches arent done! and as far as the spider web goes yes alot of people do that but i added a twist. everyone does it from top to bottom my dosent. thats where i made it personal. But negs are cool it just means your looking at it.
