Sweet!! I pretty sure you cant wait. I think its gonna look wicked after everything. Props to you man, spending mad money on it. So after you get air rides and everything. The cars gonna go up and down with switches inside your car? Like hydros?

DAMN I spent over $8000 it better be worth it...
The car will lift, and dump just like hydros with a 10 switch control box that is movable and long enough to come outside the car.

They are really nice guys, and very reasonable pricing. It was supposed to cost me only $3000, but doing the door jams was an extra $500, and I also got a new windshield and the rear glass fully resealed for the additional $300 to make grand total of $3800.

P.S. My Paint cost aprox ~ $130/quart and they used 14 quart!!

It did take a while... but that was for reasons beyond anyones controll and I dont place the blame on them for that. As for actual time spent on the car, a couple weeks turnaround if things would have went smoother... :banghead: :banghead:

More show, spent too much money making it look nice, dont have any left for serious HP mods. Never the less it's still f*cking fast with K&N, cold air, 75mm massair, headers, & 40 series Flowmaster :thumbsup:

Very exciting for you man, 3800 is a great price considering rust removal done properly is an expensive whore. They have a 356 in the background in one of your pics, thats the sign of a quality shop.

LOL, I think you mean $130/quart; used 14 quarts.

:rofl: 14 gallons would do an airplane.

Anyways, car looks great. Good choice of colour.

looks nice man...

Speaking of the rust removal. was it done properly. I am assuming so, but rust can be a pain in the arse when it comes to removal.. was that the only rust spot? how much of the cost was associated with rust..

again, nice job. Might take my lude there. :)

Yes, there was a couple other rust spots & one other major one, AND yes they were done properly, welding in new metal etc... I wouldn't have had it any other way, neither would Dale at DS Autobody. He doesn't believe in just bonding over everything possible. He also did major work repairing my sunroof becuase the owner before me had installed an aftermarket sunroof and in doing so had done a really shitty job of cutting and warped the roof, it was all fucked. Dale went in there are pulled and reinforced and made the roof look beautiful again, and very sturdy at that. And of course, all this included in the price. Along with that also included was a new door handle, new door pins, shaved antena, AND (this was thier idea), they took my hood (which was supposed to be a pin-on from Cervinis) and took the underside of the factory hood, mounted my fibreglass hood as a skin on the 'skelaton' of the factory hood. What this means for me is; NO HOOD PINS :thumbsup: & the hood is now on latches and lifts up :D
I love these guys, they took good care of me!
