Some pics----
Monday, September 01, 2008 5:24 PM
I really never have posted pictures of the car finished, and truth is it never has been finished. These pics. are just a few days after i pulled out of the paint booth. So its not done a lot of stuff still needs to be finished. Windshield does need a molding to go around it and to cover the screws. why i used screws was so that the windshield can move from diff. temp. so it can flex. They will be covered up like i said with a molding. the amp rack, and headunit still need installed. Like i said its not done in these pics., but im just bored... and tired of working on the car, over the winter i did all that in like 3 months, many sleepless nights and hours spent.

Im about to sell this car and let it go for about 3,000 because im just so sick of working on it, so hopefuly with some good motivation on this site you guys will let me finish this thing!

Im extremely happy with the car, its exactly what ive always wanted to build, a mixture of rat rod, hot rod, and mini truck. People ask why? i say to do a cavalier up when i started was un-common, now their ery common at shows, so I wanted to make something stand out and do something that hasnt been done--- done with the talkin heres pics-


the center console still needs done, it will be glassed to hold the air rid gauges, and switch panel for the air ride, the seats were re-upholstered i wanted that hot rod mini truck look

3 hifonic 12" subs, i have a 1,000 watt hifonics amp that still needs put in also 2 sets of 6.5" hifonics in car speakers

wow these kinds of comments sure are unusual for one of your threads. hahaha. Anyways, I think it looks great man. I can't beleive you got all of that done in not even a year. I think if you leave the car alone for a while, you'll be excited to work on it again. You've come too far to just give it away like that. I would really like to see this thing 100% finished, so hopefully you don't end up selling.

I believe he mentioned in a previous post there was some issue with the fender that caused the hood to be slightly off.


Car looks nice. I personally like the green better, but it yours to do what you want with.

it looks great, seriously. just clean up a few like window trim. seat's gotta go. u have to clear up some more under the fender walls. you can drop about an inch on the front. keep it up! dont give it up yet after all of the hard work! 3 grand isnt worth it! keep it!

i like it its very different, but you should of done something crazy in the front end to complete the customization (spell check) i think the front end takes away from the entire car.

i respect the amount of work that was and has been involved. other than that.... not feeling it. i liked it back when it had moderate 'seemless' now its just plain too much. the dash looks horrible IMO. and the seats do not match, i like the way they are wrapped etc and the lines, but the color does not belong.

Looks good. I wonder what the people thought of it at the car show. I bet they all had some priceless faces

Props on the work.. very creative and seems to be well done.

However not my style.

Props on the work but not my style.

Also I do not like the impractical part of your car like the NO-gauge thing. When I drive I sometimes feel the need to see what speed I am going and how much gas is left.

Oh and I remembers your first posts. Everybody was asking for you to fix the hood gap. Not done.

I see subs but no cd player.

I can honestly say that I'm dissapointed. The car was coming along very nicely, but the finish work seems really half-a$$ed, and to put all that work in and not just finish it completely is crazy.

I will agree with the above statements that the seats don't work with the car at all.

The majority of the work you did to the car deserves a lot of credit, but it just seems that you didn't bother to do the detail work it needs to make it a great car.
