Finally, the car is finished!

Took off the stock starter and threw on the hi-torque mini and my god I cannot believe the difference.. Like night and day. Got her running at 170-190 degrees in 75-80 degree weather
Pulls like there is no tomorrow once you hit 2.5K...The 4.10s get it there in a blink of an eye. Desparatly needing DR's. Get to pick up the new motor for my next project tomorrow, small block 4-bolt main stroker

......may I ask what it cost you just for the paint? I'll be painting mine within 1-2 months and
I need to get an idea...
thanks

The guy who painted this quoted me at $2500 a year ago. I went back to him and offered him a 1988 Chevy 1500 2wd pickup with 310,000 in exchange for a hood, body work, and paint. He took the bait and had it back to me in a month...The price of the paint alone was over $900....

thanks....

by the way, well done w/ yours

That was a pretty sweet deal cause that is one sexxy machine! That hood looks real sharp... that's a nice colour.

Man, that is beautiful!! I wish I could get a deal like that when it comes time to paint mine. Very, very nice.

Gorgeous!

Sharp! Very nice! Excellent! (I could go on and on!)

Now, when does she get to the track for some ETs? I know it wont disapoint.

I had no idea the cost of JUST the paint would be that much! WOW!

Again, looks fantastic!
