KUDA!
« on: May 08, 2008 - 05:21:09 PM »
hey guys and girls, here's a link to a page with some photos of the work i have done recently on my car.
some may recall i posted pics of my 'short term plans' in the new member section a while ago.

well, here are the results of my first attempt at working on a car! had a tight deadline and no previous experience...
but it sure was fun! i'm now looking forward (i think) to stripping the car in the future and doing a proper job.

good for a laugh!

cheers,
aaron

cheers guys,
although i have to say that they are flattering photos! the light was just right...   but i haven't photoshopped them at all!

in the metal it is visibly pretty rough. but the worst bits on the car are bits i didn't have time to do before the paint deadline.
but i can live with it like this for a couple years till i have the money to do a major rebuild. if i don't blow it all on a decent motor and going fast...

i'll post some pics of the other side (with the cuda fish logo) soon.

oh and the nose is that low cause i lowered it for a slow cruise at 'beach hop' (a fantastic event up north here in new zealand).
it just scraped the headers on little bumps. definitely not everyday drivable that low...   got a lot of great feedback from everybody there
