may be..but as the scean grows..and as kids crash them...hatchies have become desierable..and rare where i live..ive been offerd 7k for mine..without a powerplant..race teams love to buy extra hachie's for partouts allso..i will still believe..the hatch is more desierable..hence rare than the coupe..at least for where i live.

D@m That V/C turned out really nice.... I'm gonna have to try something like that someday... What kind of paint did you use on it? Did you clear coat it? I'd be worried it would flake off with all the heat under the hood.... But at any rate it looks friggen sweet!

Honestly, it was a really bad time in my life. I just couldnt seem to catch a break from anything but I sat one day and decided I needed to organize myself and accomplish 1 thing at a time and here's where I'm at now...

Actually, s14tan was the one who motivated me to really do something different for a VC. I just took his adviced and used regular paint but I let it bake onto the VC in the sun for about 8 hours while I was at work. Then we used paint pens for all the graffiti work.

Ok, I promise there's updates coming but when anything starts coming together things get hecka and crazy. I keep having to travel back and forth, I'm gettin tires 2maro and an oil change on the other car, then work and all while tryin to keep the GF happy lol tonight I promise those pics of the motor, its lookin good....

Good bet would be Phil of Speed of Sound. Im not sure bout his prices but from what I've seen they seem pretty fair. Or I could talk to a friend of mine who has a shop, but his price would all depend in the kind of mood he's in when you talk to him. I say Speed of Sound
