    You guys are way to nice...no, really. Today I visited the shop were member luckyirishpride works, Pure Vision, and holy macaroni!!! I really hope to get close to that level of work someday, truely next-next level stuff. But I am so stoked that you guys like the way the car is coming out. I am looking forward to getting it on the Power Tour and making the rounds to some of the road race tracks with it on my way home. I live 40 minutes from Willow Springs so that's where I take everything, even my 2000 F150, for track days.

    Been away from the board for awhile and missed this thread. But Im back on my project. Thank goodness for the Spectre thread or I would have never found it. Simply amazing work there my friend! :thumbs2: First class fabrication! I now have to go tear out my entire floor and start over after seeing this. You nailed the stance which is one of the hardest things to do. Any updates? Pics?

    Hey, thanks! Unfortunately I've been working on other projects for the last month and haven't been able to do much but finish the roll cage but I'll try to get some new pics up soon. I like your picture of the Maverick with lambo doors, have you seen that actually done?

    Well keep us up to date thats going to be one killer Mav! No I havent even seen it done to a Mav but I would really like to do it on mine. I've cut it up so much anyway not really worried about the originality anymore lol.
    I do renderings by the way so if you ever need help in that department let me know.
