Default Photoshoot of my eh. First time posting real pictures. warning 56k

This is the first time I've posted real pictures of my car on here. I realize there's some things on the car that aren't "h-t safe" but i built it for me and that's how i like it. So please, be nice. These were taken by my brother who is a professional wedding photographer, this is his first time shooting a car. I just stood back and let him do his thing, i didn't say a word. I think he did a pretty good job. Lemme know what you think


















My favorite shot of the day




This is what i mean by not h-t safe. I'm a fool for custom paint, and my roots are in old school hot-rods. The ghost flames are Cadillac pearl. We had a hard time capturing the flames in general they're so subtle.





Rolling shots







"money shot" -bay needs alot of work before i'll be happy with it. But i had him snap a shot for me, as i figured you guys would ask.



The car is far from being done and still needs alot of work. I'm in the process of fixing my daily beater (91 si), until then i'm leaving my lip off and it will remain at this height. Our roads are crap in NE.

yeah, even though i think flames and hondas should never go together, car looks very clean, i think an oem lip and nice wheels would make it look killer

Thanks guys. Its a B18b1 from a 98 LS, I picked it up with 30k on the clock. The header is an edelbrock 4-2-1. Wheels are on the long list of things to get

forget h-t standards, build it the way you want, seems like you're getting a positive response for doing something different anyways. Good luck!

Thanks alot guys. I'm surprised they're being so well received on here. A friend of the family does custom paint for hot-rods and choppers. He's the one who pitched the idea to me... i was skeptical about the idea at first, but really liked the end result. Though i kinda wish i would've had him paint the whole car Cadillac pearl instead of respraying it frost white.

Its a 1st gen apexi N1, i've had it on for years (before the slant became a trend). I have a ws2 in my garage awaiting new piping. Like i said, the car is far from finished
