So the car no longer needs keys... Did a nice RFID kit with push button start, proximity unlock/lock etc. Still trying to come up with an idea for the column cover to make it look like it never had an ignition switch but this will have to do for now... excuse the dirty interior... car is still in the works

Looking good ready to see some paint laid down. I have a buddy using the summit hot rod flat black on his truck, laid down smooth but the activator came him some trouble he had to end up getting a different set time (fast instead of medium). Curious on how the clear will come out if its decent I'll respray mine with some summit paint.

haha me too guys I'm dyin to see it done. I spent soo much time trying to get the old fenders and hood looking better but I still wasnt happy with how they were. Now there is hardly any more body work to do.. Yay! lol I need to buy a new air compressor though and ones good enough for spray guns are kinda expensive.. But anyways, I found the memory card for my better camera so here are some higher quality pics..

So yea, I felt like eventually I would like to do a tuck and shave so I figured I would go ahead and just do it. Using Downstar strut tower extensions, chase bays brake tuck with hard lines, making my own engine harness and running a VW Sirocco radiator. As yall can see its a work in progress but mostly done welding up everything and smoothing it out. What yall think?
