When she is done....you mean done, done...
does that even happen?
lol
That Just maybe in Decades.

I swear i am thinking of something next long before i get finished with the current.

To be honest i really didnt plan much of the car- kind really has been a trail in concept.
Like the airbrushing- i simply started in one spot and kept going.
I really dont have alot of money to invest in the car at this time- so i have tried to make as much as i can out of what i can.

which is why it means so much to get positive feed back on it.
so thats again and hey even if you wanted to meet up - done or not, let me know.

I did enjoy the Nats and would like to get more involved with the club and members

Some what an update

So...I guess im in a sudden cross road with a lot of things to include the car.

I spent the day wet sanding the GTA - its back in black. Yup Airbrushing is off..originally i didnt clear coat simply cause i wasnt done. Today - i simply dont feel the same as i did when i did it. So the meaning and thought behind it no longer remains.

Glad i did wait to clear although it wouldn't of stopped me-just would of made the day longer.

So whats next?
i am not sure.

Currently there are a ton of little things i want to finish, before i start something larger.

I figure ill know what i want to do then...

I did start the custom fiberglassed front spoiler although i havent actually did the test fit-its almost done, but still in the air with it as well as the side skirts. I started them as well, but the whole side exhaust issue is hanging that up. I figured at first that if i mocked it up i could install and the finish molding the tips into the side skirts like the mustangs...but unless i get a welder and pipe-fab myself...it dont look like its getting done either. This then effects the rear drift. Which i was only going to do if i did the side exhaust. Pointless with tips hanging out the back. Either way i have to get an exhaust.

The Y pipe is done-I have replaced the header gaskets only to blow them out yet again (hate changing them). Reason was the 02 sensor. I was convinced that it was sucking in fresh air messing sensor up and throwing the lopes off...well i was haft right- the y-pipe actually has a hole in it up by the flange.

So exhaust is a must.
but i guess we will see.
