The first time I saw one of these cars was in 2009 in Las Vegas at the Imperial Palace. I knew then that I wanted one. So I spent the next year or so looking at different ones, and learning everything I could about them.

I bought TTA#1515 in August 2010 in Columbus, Ohio. The car had 52k, and had been repainted because it originally was out of Texas and the PO told me the paint wasn't the greatest. It also had the front seats recovered, but not the rears.

I am really particular about detail, so I have done a lot of things to the car to make it nicer. For the interior, I have replaced the rear seat material with Hawks Katzskin, bought a recovered steering wheel, brand new OEM shift ****, and a dash pad cover.

In 2013, I had the engine bay painted, to spruce it up. I have also done a lot of engine detailing: new wire loom on a lot of the wires, new coolant tank heat sheild, and a "Turbo" hood insulator.

The lastest improvement I have done is refinishing the wheels. I worked on this late 2013-early 2014. I stripped the clear and wet sanded the aluminum. I had my painter redo the gold. I refinished 6 rims (4 fronts and 2 rears), as my plan was to run 4 fronts on the car. I did a complete set though, in case I didnt like the look. Anyway it worked out and I am running 4 fronts with Firestone Indy Wide Ovals 245/50/16's.

my engine is stock appearing, but has a few mods. I have 42lb injectors, a ta-49 turbo, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, non stock chip, scanmaster, and a boost guage on the pillar.

But then, right at the end, Kymee's Turbo spooled up, giving HIS impressive car a decisive finish
