Did a little cleaning
 
only half way done, I need to re-route some of the wires and degrease the under side.

Went at it again with the rattle cans, all in all I'm happy with it

Nice improvement!

maroman88 05-07-2008 12:57 AM

looks very evil hehe

bubba428 05-07-2008 06:46 AM

needs a wet sand and another coat...next sunny day I'll be at it again. I still need to get some wire loom and get all that wire mess away, then after I swap the trans i'm gonna get a pretty water pump and timing cover and a nice lumpy bump stick.

I like the all black look. Blacked out corners and painted wheels give it that evil look.

Wish I had my 3rd gen on the road. :(

Looks pretty good Bubba!

did you paint the whole car with a rattlecan?

WildBillyT 05-07-2008 12:21 PM

Looks good, Bubba. Certainly not bad for a rattle can job.

yes, because i couldn't stand having a car with potential if I just gave it some TLC but I couldn't afford to have it done professionally. So the rattle can is a happy medium, and it makes for that Road Warrior vibe lol

I love the wheels cause the tires and wheels kinda blend together and the blend with the car...really doesn't stand out at all, I love how discrete the whole car is

Fixed.


Just kidding of course. Car looks great (like I said above).:mrgreen:

Paint looks good for a rattlecan job, but if you like how the wheels blend in so much, then why didn't you get the raised white letters turned in?

bubba428 05-07-2008 01:02 PM

HAHAHA nice, It is a get away car isn't i

It breaks up the solid blackness just a little. but not too much

BonzoHansen 05-07-2008 06:10 PM

Cool. Now pull the rear springs out & cut 1/2 coil off.

the rear shocks and springs are shot, its not sagging but they're very soft

BigAls87Z28 05-09-2008 10:26 AM

Dude...invest in a set of shocks soon. Before you cup the crap out of your rear tires.

Road Warrior? more like a garbage can mobile.

I think a ****** macco paint job would look nicer than that.
