Default Bringing Gumby back to life (93 GS-R)

After 6 long years of sitting in the yard with no hood on it, I am finally bringing my cherished gs-R back from the dead, I am having a H-T member (killah1) paint it as we speak, His name is Junior and he and his brother are doing some great work restoring the factory color. This car harbors some awesome memories from long ago, and has traveled with me from Cali., to New Orleans, back to Cali.,then to Vegas for a while, and then,...back back to Cali.- Cali. here are some pics and I will update with more as they come available.

- UPDATE -
Just made a visit to see my friend Junior and his brother Pancho, and they are taking good care of my baby! They have gutted my engine bay and sprayed it, as well as BLOCK SANDED both sides of the car and the roof, They should begin spraying anytime after I bring them a new rear bumper and some work on my rocker panels, I am pretty happy so far, and cant wait to have the finished product back in my garage for re-assembely, there are new pics, so check them out! Contact KILLAH1 here on HT if you are interested in having him paint your car or any body work needs!








10-12-08 new pics....
















Lots of pics I know, but there are even more to come, as he gets full body paint, color sand buff, and re- assembely with engine/trans and suspension!

What wheels are those? I got those in a trade and rocked them on my old EG and never had a clue what they were.

keep up the good work! not very many people like to keep this original paint color. Are you gonna shave the hood pin holes?
