I have had the car finished for about three weeks now. Between two shows and a death in my wife's family, I just simply have'nt had the time to post the pics. I have misplaced my camera after a show saturday and cannot locate it. I borrowed these pics from a friend of mine's album from the last show we attended. So far the car has taken a top 15 at birmingham and first in closed wheel competetion in cookeville tn. I hope you all like it, and when I locate my camera, I will take some more pics and add them to the post. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to ask and I will answer them.

This is something I built for a friend of mine for his little girl's room. A box stock 2003 monte carlo kit decals are alps printed. The water decals were put on the body then cleared over.

This is a car that steve park drove back in 1996. This car I believe was only driven one time. The actual race car, the number and stripes were chevy red, not just plain red.The actual car also did not have the racing reflections decals, I just added them to dress it up a little more. I had an alps set of decals that were the correct color. They were done a very long time ago by a decal maker who is no longer aorund. The decals were not coated, and I was'nt aware that they were not. I had the car decalled, and waxed it, the colors rubbed off, so I had to redo the car. The decals are a combination of alps, wetworks, slixx,and powerslide. I have to thank matt mcnally for the hood decal. It came from a wetworks sheet. I had to cut a piece of decal film and spray it silver to lay under it to get the silver color.

I finished this car a little over a year ago, and it has been in the hands of it's owner for sometime now. Before I post any pics of this car I want to take the time to tell several people thank you!!!!! I want to thank jeff marsh first off. Jeff has been the biggest inspiration as far as my detailing builds. Jeff has pushed me to go further than even I thought I could, thank you my friend I owe you.

I also want to give a huge thank Dave t  and Clay kemp. Without your works in progress, It would'nt have been possible. Thank both of you for everything you have done for our hobby.

The last of the people I want to thank are Clutch coomer, thank you for the help with the headers my friend, without you the car would have been lost. You are one hell of a builder and fabricator, keep it up.Don't be so hard on yourself either.

John Snider, without you this car would'nt have even been possible. I have told you before thank you for allowing me to do this john.

This car has a huge list of detail added to it. I will hit what I can remember, but I know I can't get it all. I will have all the W.I.P. pics in my photobucket album in a few days.
