Are you serious???

Just don't post in this thread until you review ThinJim's previous threads.

You will save yourself from saying dumb shit.

Sick, just sick!!!! That paint job looks top notch, along with the rest of your build. This car is going to be on the cover of magazines mark my words! Have you gotten any sponsors yet? You could be looking at some serious $$$ if you go to lots of events, and get some cover shoots. Don't know if thats what your planning just saying its a possibility. Also were are you gonna drag it? I'd love to come see it if you ever come to the tri-state area and hit up Raceway Park E-town NJ. Again Nice Job ThinJim

About the only thing that is the same is the body and motor. Although it will be a different car, it will still look like a CL without the street trim/creature comforts.

Pictures don't capture the talent that went into the preparation for the paint. When the sun is beaming on it, it literally leaps out at you. It was somewhat of an overcast day but was able to capture a pic with a direct hit on it with the side shot seen above. The car was in the shade most of the time. I can't wait to put it together and get it rolling, that will knock your socks off for sure. Thanks for all the comments and enjoy some more pics!
