Before and After

Fox Body · 03-07-2001, 10:30 PM

I hesitate to show what my car looked like before the 351W was dropped in and a few months after it was in, but we all need a good laugh every once in a while (guess how many sarcastic comments I got on the hood

)

Anyone else got the guts to show a before shot?

Oh wow Fox will I have some before after before after pics for you!!! My car was so purty(but lil chips) until I started sanding and tearing out my interior and changing it to all black. I'm doing all this biding time until my 306 is done, and whew! Now a 94 GT bucket is worse than a 79...pics to come soon!

Bring 'em on.

Driving that car then was a humbling experience. But I did surprise the heck out some punks in their "pretty" cars. Heh, heh. They were humbled by a "bucket of bolts."

I also found out that some of the cars I saw running around Augusta weren't as fast as I thought they were either (they were fast, just not AS fast).

I'll bet you surprise your fair share of people with that piece!! The cowl hood kinda gives some of it away. That's gonna look BAD A$$ when it's painted! Have a color picked out yet?
