    So in the mean time I started the wheel rebuild saga..Broke 1 of the bolt heads off, stripped 8 but was lucky enough to get them out. I think this is the first time they got some love in 9 years and trust me they need it. So I got them all split apart and bead blasted the back barrels and dropped them off to get powder coated black. The centers and the lips I'm still thinking of what to do with them. I heard there is a good chrome shop called pine rivers Electroplating?(anyone herd of them?) or I may do the wheels all matt black but im still not sure-any ideas? Im looking at getting all new hardware now

    Awesome work as usual Jay.

    look forward to seeing the exhaust fabrication pic's! Is really is an art form I reckon!

    Wonder how it will sound with the hair dryer on there. May tone it down alittle bit, but hopefully not take away all of the VR6 bark.



    I knew you loved V8's deep down! I see the pic in the background! hahaha

    Surprised you don't have any old American muscle car posters up too!
