Progress... took the car to the first show!
Friday, November 07, 2008 6:40 PM
First show that I entered the car in, its called dropt n destroyed. Great turn out, had over 300 cars/trucks i believe!. I took home 1st place cavalier wild class. The car is still not done... been so busy with life, i still have to put the headunit in hook the stereo up, ect. Heres some pics, yes the windshield is done, and it looks great!

Seats being orange but not matching REALLY throws it off. And if looks like you fixed the fender-hood gap on the drivers side but not passenger side. Other than that, I can appreciate the work done and your dedication, but the car as a while is not my cup of tea.

looks like your taking care of the little things wrong with it step at a time, and even though I rather see it happen quicker, glad to see your actually doing it and with the family I could understand the reason for slowly doing so. with that said, windshield looks a lot better then when I last seen pictures of lexan just screwed into the pillars..


AND @!#$ THAT ORANGE IS BRIGHT

wow I just noticed the steering wheel thing. That would bug the hell out of me. Shouldn't be hard to fix though?

And as for the "rain comment" I am pretty sure it gets asked in all of his threads, it is a show-only car. You are worried about a top in the rain, what about some gauges? lol He doesn't drive the car around.

Nope! He moved the fenders back, and then he welded them in place. Only way to fix it the right way is to cut out a fender and weld in some extra metal in the middle.
