Rollover_Red Posted September 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 so i just stayed up all last night, bored as hell, and did this for the shit's sake of it: i have 3 of the 4 rims done, i just need to take off the old tire on the last one to finish. i also painted the pieces that go around the lights that connect to the grill. other than that, i just did a little tuning work and just a little fixing up here and there. any ideas to do next, that dont cost anything?

Rollover_Red Posted January 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 UPDATE; its been a long time since i last posted in here due to alot of complications. first off, the car is technically not in my name right now only because the car got towed and a buddy got it out of impound so in return i told him i would the car in his name til i had the money. i got a really good paying job so the car will be back in my name soon enough, i did a couple things to the car after i last posted it, i tried selling the car to pay off debt, but ended up keeping it. i get paid in 6 day and thats when ill get my car back, and here are some pics of what it looked like last... after i got it out of the imound with all the dirt on it, funny cus it sat in there for two weeks and when the guy started it, it fired up like it didnt even sit. lol Quote Link to comment

Yosemite_Sam Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 I remember seeing that car on Craigslist. I was wishing I had the funds to make an offer at the time. It's a sick car, but that story makes it so much more sick; hold on to that thing. Quote Link to comment
