  1. i picked up this little gem tonight after work from an old highschool friend. its been in the garage for about four years not he had big hopes of restoring it. after 1300 bucks he changed his mind. now its at WTI customs. its a little rough around the edges but after we sand her down well see how much work we have ahead of us. we are going all out on this one beings it will be the first car the shop has built and we have to get our name out there. the car came with some crappy centerlines and old trans am wheels that are dryrotted and bald. it also has the stock 305 with a 4 speed both will go outback to the parts stash and in its place is going somthing fuel efficiant and a little mare muscular
  2. Sweet i have been looin dor a reason to build it for a whyle now lol
  3. Is it to late to get in on this i have a parts box 86 elcamino ss id id like to build up
  4. Saw this on scale. Beautiful build my friend im workin on a compact for the next contest right now. I always get new ideas looking at ur builds maybe one day ill beat u in a contest hahaha jp great build for sure
  5. we sent it to the jewler twice and they said that since there "floating dimonds" they have a tendancey to fall out alot. i just dont want to keep sendign it back every few months. i got a great deal on it n it is true u get what u pay for lol. no wonder it was on sale hahaha
  6. very nice and clean for a 24 hour build. im glad it made a great gift
  7. hey guys i have a problem i need a solution to. i bought my fiance an engagment ring in june and so far weve had to get two dimonds fixed the first time it was loose and the company helped us when we had it fixed and a few months later a dimond fell out and we went and had that fixed ourselves now we have a loose dimond again. i can super glue it but am afraid of getting that white film. i am sure theres a glue out there that will be strong enough and dry clear to put on it i was just wondering if anyone had any sugestions. we really dont want to send the ring back or replaced. thank you guys for your help and merry christmas
  8. Or maybe a 70s era hot rod with fatty bk tires and jacked up rearends
  9. that 57 wagon is SICK!
  10. thats kinda ugly. maybe lower the bedline a little. and square up the rearend to match the shape of the front and it might look better but im sure its cheap made and wont last long at all compared to the abuse of the old elkys
