  • making a comeback too overloard :)

    well since our overloard wrote a comeback letter i guess i should too after all us who are still aprentices are always inspired by our mentors (plus i needed a reason to get rid of my 666 post number ha ha just kidding). I dissapeared for awile because in oct i wed my high school sweetheart (finally!). My car still sits as it was before that. The bp is in thanks to matt (resuwrected) I owe much thanks to him. Just needs to be wired up, put the break booster in and finish the hydro set up and the funbox should be screaming down the street. I needed to wait until funds were freed up to continue with getting married and getting a new place and fixing it up and thanksgiving and christmas and... money was tight and still kinda is but its time to get back to it and finish the beast and release it into the wild!

    here are some pics of the project

    motor in and "solid" thanks to matt



    a few of how it sits now






    the argile hood is what happens to your car when your friends show up to work on your car but you don show up ha ha but i actually like it so its staying that way ha ha.

    but thats where the project is and im looking forward to meeting more of you guys in the near future.

      The checkerboard doesn't look bad. I kind of like it too.

      If that's what happens when your friends work on your car when you're not around, then I must make sure my friends never work on mine unsupervised. I have the kind of friends who would paint mine pink and put daisy stickers all over it (they're real a-holes, but I wouldn't trade them for anything).
