[smo0f]

you got my vote just for the girls. oh and the car is nice too

[pluto316]

I've said it once, I'll say it again; They will let ANYONE become models these days, apparently.

[smo0f]

I've said it once, I'll say it again; They will let ANYONE become models these days, apparently.

you're absolutely right. i'm in the process of signing papers to be one of the first regular looking overweight male models. wish me luck

[sanblaster]

I've said it once, I'll say it again; They will let ANYONE become models these days, apparently.


If you have a mini skirt that covers at least 80% of your ass, have a really ugly-ass tatoo, and you own a pair of boobs then you have the qualifications.

[Scooter_TO]

I've said it once, I'll say it again; They will let ANYONE become models these days, apparently.

agreed. A few of the girls are pretty fugly. But there are a couple of nice ones in there. I've got a couple from Darknights that were alright. But they're lower resolution and older pics, so I didn't post originally.

I'll add them to my originally post jsut to try to help keep this thread clean and on-track.

[bigwoofer]

Well this would have been more fun in another month and a half when my Work rims arrive!!! Also next week my car goes in to a local guy here who specializes in hot rods, for some custom hand laid pin-striping. I have a whole new dash coming in from the local wreckers here and i'm completely remolding my dash as well.

Ok here is my car, I bought it brand new back in 2001 with 14km on the odometer. I know some people don't like my car because it's too much a show car, or some people think its too ricey. I won't deny this is definitely a car built for shows. It's also a car built to be driven 365 days per year. It also hauls my family of 4 around. This car drives around daily at 9psi, has seen 16psi on more than one occasion and hasn't given me any problems what so ever. Everything I do with this car is thought out much in advance and done with alot of precautions in place, even to the point of overbuilding things as I am a big fan of doing things right the first time.

Things I'm most proud of.... all the stuff that is one off hand built stuff. The motorized cryo rack in the bumper. You wouldn't belive how much work was actually involved with that. Cutting out the spare tire well, welding in an aluminum tub, calculating the angles to get the motorization to clear all the suspension stuff and to come down at the precise angle so that when fully extended the tray lays flat on the ground. Every show i have gone to in both the states and canada, people always say to me that it's something they have never seen before. And its fully functional for engine cooling purposes, and it also serves a second purpose, since this is a daily driver, I couldn't put two cryo bottles in the back with the stereo or there would be no room for groceries!!

The a-pillar pod housing the turbo timer and boost controller, most people go with the gauges on the a-pillar. I hand fabricated this to be different and unique and I haven't seen anyone else with something like that either.

The custom dash bezel for the dvd player and gauges.

[Enderwiggin9969]

hey chris add more pics of your car =P

[daedalus]

Just found this thread. There are some BIG contenders in here. Glad to even be considered amoung the elite.

As many of you know, i havent had the best of luck with this car from the start, and pretty much anything that could go wrong with it, has. Basically, like most people on this site, the car was built to be a streetable, daily-driver capable car that didnt sacrifice reliability or driveability for stupid power or exssive bling bling. Most everything on the car has a purpose, but the entire goal was to make the car flow togehter and tie together to creat something special, unique, and impressive.

I only wanted to improve on the stock attributes. The cars mantra was simple: Good braking? We can make it better. Great handling? Lets upgrade everything. Quick? Lets forge the crap out of it and boost it more! Looks sporty? Lets make it have a wider stance and a more agressive front end.

This is only the beginning. Many of you know where this cars new goal of 170mph is going to take it. The end result will be an extenuation of its current state. Clean, tasteful, PURPOSEFUL modifications that blend the entire car into something extrodinary.

Thanks for your consideration in your vote!

PS...(bump) for a cool thread and prizes!

sorry, no free publicity. You of all people should know this. You must pay him to sport your site for you to get more hits and more money.

[Pirana]

[sandspeed]

[lsdeater]

sorry, no free publicity. You of all people should know this. You must pay him to sport your site for you to get more hits and more money.

yeah, see in the big world, people give you free car parts for getting magazine exposure.

no reason this should be any different.

[daedalus]

Regardless of who wins, I want to thank supman for this great idea and oppritunity. Every person who has entered thus far has put more time, effort, money, blood, sweat, and in my case, tears into their cars, than we care to admit. You dont get to where all of us are with our rides without serious commitment, dedication, and passion. We wouldnt do it otherwise, and we sure as hell wouldnt have gone as far as we all have.

Props to EVERYONE in the running for this. At the end of the day, we are all in it for the same reasons, and we all need to pat ourselves on the back for our work.

And Supman, thanks for giving us the oppritunity to get a little recognition for our hardwork. A lot of us wouldnt create huge photo threads (i.e Brian_MPt, bigwoofer, myself) if we didnt think everyone would enjoy and benefit from our stories and experiences. Its VERY cool that you have chosen to single us out for this!

PROPS TO EVERYONE!
