    Passenger side was fine, IIRC. Wha happen?

    Look forward to seeing it fixed and resprayed.

    Keep on cranking on it, Scotty.

      Let's do it. Split a plane ticket with some guys in your area and I will shoot everyone's car for free :)

        Pass fender is a bit off - along with the radiator support, which looks as though it's been bent a few times and straightened...

        No worries. It's a 10-20 footer now - when spring comes it'll be an eat off it special ;)

          The sad news is that NE cars just aren't photo shoot material ;)

          Maybe jflower? He's got a car in the works that will blow us all away.

            paint the i lip body color, it will look great. Mine has grown on me a lot, and it makes getting a jack under my car way easier. I'll probably still rock the rieger this summer though.

              No offense, but I think you should send the seats back to whoever recovered them. They look haggard.

                I don't think it's a bad car...just several things that need to be dealt with asthetically.

                  I agree about the seats. That car looks like such a pile but it does have lots of potential. I can't wait to see it redone. Everyone, myself included has coupes. It's nice to see verts gettin some love.

                    I dont think the car is a POS. It's just the seats that ruin it.

                      I just repainted the i lip, euro grills, center grill, ellip rings and a few other odds and ends trim black ;) I like the contrast - not to mention it's a lot easier to touch up if it's flat black than if it's blue ;)

                      We've been over this. The seats are being drastically altered to fit better and match in color. They ARE going back to who put them together - this was part of the agreement when I bought them in the first place. In all honesty, the pictures don't put them in a very good light. In person, they really aren't that bad.

                      It's a daily for the summer - once the winter comes it'll be getting completely torn apart and resprayed, then put back together with some new parts. The car will be a very refreshed version of what you see here.

                      A pile? I think that's a bit drastic. But, beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

                      You guys really need to go back and look at the "before" interior pictures - what's in there now is a HUGE difference.

                              Only for the bold - this is a low, low car but handles amazing.
