well...

 

bad lighting

 

...

 

they are hooks from s-10's i guess if i had the dang thing running i would not need them

 

LOL

i thought maybe you were using them at the track or something to pull your car around like some do ....LOL..


neat idea thou

 

That looks good, definately different.

 

thanks.... they actually come in real handy. i will try to put more pics on when i get home. the hooks were 70 bucks (gm) and i had some square tubing lying around. i am going to work on a better set-up when i get time(quick bolt on type deal).


keene

i use my 4 wheeler to pull it around all the time

 

that must be one of the cleanest primer paint jobs, big thumbs up to u buddy .

 

thanks for the paint comment. i sanded the whole car with 600 then 1000. bought 50 dollars worth of flat black and put umpten light coats. turned out a heck of alot better than i could imagine. i took off the front and rear bumpers handles lights ... anything i could.

 

ok i will quit posting pics

 

Can you expand (maybe you have in another post) on the flat black paint? It looks cleaner than in the mags! SCC's flat black car perpetually has un even flatness.

 

i think i have a pic (not a good one though) in a thread "who likes the stealth look" or something like that.

i will try to post something when i can get some nice pics.

 

that does it looks like a stealth bomber paint job. did u seal it

 

the funny thing is that i work for a company (pratt & whitney) that they actually spray the stealth coating for the new raptor f22 and other planes. that stuff is pretty freaking cool.

 

Heres my primer TA, knowhere near as nice lol.

 

85vortechta, are you actually doing the targa top, or was that just a ps for the fun of it?

 

This week on overhauling they had a 3 tone paint job where the difference between 2 of the paints was this satin/semigloss additive... it lookes boss. I think it was single stage too.

Side note.

 

I too love the targa top. I want to know more info about the targa. Anyone remember the show "Simon & Simon"? Maybe I'm just showing my age.

 

I remember it! Didn't they have a targo-top thirdgen?? I thought I remembered that somewhere!

 

thats really nice.

I always been scared every time i take my car to the track because i figure i will have to be towed off the starting line or down the track for blowing my rear end up. There is no real good towing point in the front that would not mess up my gfx being so low. They dont care too much about that, they just want it off for they can get the next person to run.

very clean

 

My thought was to get some 2" webbing, loop it around the bumper, and run it through a small slit in the plastic bumper cover. Add a d-ring if you want to, and you're all set. Similar to the one turner motorsports sells to the BMW crowd for $25.
