Post by **idahotuner** » Sat Dec 29, 2007 2:52 am

Good luck with the build!

btw Urban Camo FTW. idk im just a sucker for it, the last two years i been thinkin bout paintin my car that way

Post by **idahotuner** » Sat Dec 29, 2007 8:22 am

dang, am I the only one that's a hater for the arctic-camo transmission paint?! maybe if it was on a jeep or something. Hmmm..that's an idea. Rip off the doors and hatch to your 240 and put some jeep doors on it then you can drive around the jungles of Lancaster hunting Squirrels with a twelve-gage.

Post by **idahotuner** » Sat Dec 29, 2007 4:11 pm

could do better then that. use tommy gun and do it gangster style

Post by **mrgreeneyes** » Sat Dec 29, 2007 6:34 pm

danny, why are you hatin on my work? its delicious and you know it.

youll hate my car then lol... when this coupe is done, you probably wont like it. but you should, cus it will be awesome. *the car will not be urban camo, dont worry* but it will definately not be like any 240 ive seen on here... retro, badass, and black, black, black...
