Paint soon.
Ok everyone I havent been in here for like ever. I was the guy who was making the key chains and the new scaled modles that never got finished. For that I am sorry. So everyone please forgive me. The guy who was working for me had some mental problems and needless to say my business floped so I've been working mt @$$ off trying to recoupe. I havent forgot about all my friends hear on the network. Nor have I forgot about my car in fact shes the only fun thing I've been working on since my last post some months ago.
Here's some pics of work in progress We have been massaging her in our spare time so to speek. I hope everyone likes her. She was just going to get new paint but........ Well just look at the pics. |

Hopefully I'll be done by December. But Its been 3 months now. I just work on her in spare time. I sure miss driving her. But I wont take her out till summer now anyway even if it gets finished. Hopfully by then the stage 3 blower system will be ready for sale cuse thats my next mod for sure. Just in time for my tax refund.
By the way I'm painting her House of Kolor shimrin black base kote with 6oz of Rich gold kamilion flake in a gallon of H.O.K. Interkote clear. Should look very trick. |

That'll definitely be a unique look for the SVX. Can't wait to see the finished result.
I was going to ask if a stage III was in store after the body work... but you pleasantly answered that one before I could ask!

answering questions
He everyone thanks for all the positive comments Im actually suprised that someone hasnt said that the front look like Im getting the car ready for a NASCAR race. I've heard it more than once at our garage. So to answer some questions.
1. Yes that is a fuse for my system. 2. As far as the rear it is getting fitted with an rally style bumper also , it looks to be the hardest to make. 3. I live up hear in Cumberland Md next to SVXFILES (Whats up Tom if you see this.) Now a little more info I am making all these parts bolt on and bolt off that way if I get into a wreck I can replace them fairly easly. That means that I will be making a mold of each part and then making new fiberglass panels. I will probably be selling a few side skirts..... ANYONE INTERESTED ON A PAIR OF BOLT ONS????????? Also the hood is getting cut up a bit stay posted for pics soon. Thanks again for all your replies. |
