thanks for the compliments guys and even for the put downs hahhahaha I don't fix up cars for others..... I fix them up for me. When I owned a '79 toyota corolla back in 1993 and our mods consisted of buying lights from some other country or swapping the motor out for a bigger one from a toyota truck, no one dreamed it would be fuel for an industry to do it professionally(we didn't start it I know but we were a part of it), we were just copying what we saw in the VW community and trying to battle them, and of course the 510 people always doing it sick with bluebird conversions back then too. Nowadays you guys find it normal and call it JDM hahahahahahha god people laughed at us then, and now it's cool, some of my friends had been doing it since the late 60's and 70's (i wasn't around but i hung with an older crowd), now I own various project cars and this one is the ultimate to me since it is proof that VIPstyle is alive and well in America, and that the styling cues can be applied to non VIP platform vehicles. I don't need your approval or your criticism to fuel me, all i need is a desire to stand out in a crowd of clones....... some of you here have some sick rides performance-wise, mine will catch up eventually, some of you have some ultra galactic megalord series cars with wings that would look at home on a hydrofoil, but i look at that and think if he's happy then cool deal, he had a vision and saw it through, all I have is a car with over $17k invested into it on items some will never afford, to enter a style some will never understand, and the funny thing is that the mainstream is now noticing this style and in a few months to a year some of my worst critics will be trying to clone my car to try and win HIN shows and get in tuner magazines hahahahahahaha i'll take the criticism in stride, my car is ugly? ok thanks, my car looks like a "train wreck"? ok thanks, your car is better? ok cool....... but i'm a grown a$$ man and i've worked hard to attain what i've got and no one pays my bills and my expensive hobbies! god i love diversity!!! flame on haters, and to the people who support it or at least tolerate it thanks since every one of you is sincerely good in my book for just not hating ......
