I guess I could start from the beginning. Picture a 2dr you wouldn't want. The paint looked like melted candle wax. The black rubber seals on all the windows matched the tan blah. The windows were so crusted over with hard water stains, you could barely see out the windows. The rubber trim w/ the red pinstripe had two pieces missing on one side, a different piece missing on the other side. There were 7 bee hives in all of the door jams and under the hood. And to top it all off, it was sitting on a set of dry rotted 225's.
So, I talked my reluctant uncle into letting me take care of it as my own. Within hours of the hand shake, I cleaned her up and presented this.

Over the next year, I stole the rims and 31's from the Exploder. And the diamond plate rockers were the beginning of the whole scheme.

Around the same time, about 3 years ago, the chrome grill and bezels came into play

Last year I got the new rims, but couldn't put them on unless I lifted it. Damn, Hey Honey...

You can see where the worn front tires got moved to the back.

JKS dogleg shackles were added prior to the lift, but were left in place to compensate for the sub/system.

I tweaked it so the dp on the hood would show up.

This one doesn't look any better.

I do like your wheels though.

Thanks on the rims. It took me a long time to find a set I was willing to buy 5 of.

The hood issue is gonna change. Some black will be added in the wide sections where the vents are. The black will follow the body line up onto the wiper cowl, and across the bottom of the windshield.

I'm still trying to get this thread all caught up on everything I've done.
I got some custom work done on the inside. Speaker box carpet does wonders and it's cheap.

Got the front bumpers modified. Why? Cuz it was free and I was artistically capable.

3 days after I got the rear bumper done and mounted, I got hit by a motorcycle.
