This car is stupid, sick, insane, bananas, ridiculous, crazy, off the chain and all other stuff you can think of. :wow: :wow: :bow: :bow:

Jason that does look insanely sick on the ground.

IMHO,this will be the most posted thread on the site before the car is all finished:thumbsup:

TOP NOTCH BUILD!!! :hail: :thumbsup:

This is my first post on this forum
All i can say is WOW!!!!:hail:

Can't say anything else that hasn't already been said! The attention to detail, execution, fitment, etc is as good as it gets! Still can't believe this is your first attempt at a car like this. Mad skills!! So, is it still going black? What about the underside color?

GOOD GAUD YALL!!! Looks killer no front sheet metal and all.

Wow, beautiful build Jason! Really happy for you man.

I agree, and not because it doesn't look good. I just want to see you make something else. I've said it before. I don't know whether your build motivates me to raise my skill level or just hang up the tools and close the door on the garage. :hail: Can't wait to see more Jason.

I agree, this one will look terrible when he clear coats the car. :unibrow:

I have no words.....................:wow:

Going to get front sheetmetal on and then the rear diffusor and exhaust tips.
Thanks, Pilot Sports 345/30/49 and 285/35/19
What's wrong with plastic?
Funny I actually forgot to take the sticker off. Thanks Sieg I might take you up on that offer.
I thought it was the other way around.:lol: No one will de-throne the Payback thread.

Thanks Alex, I'm going to have to come check out the new shop.

Yeah still black, is there really any other color? I don't no or have thought about the rest of the finishes yet. Maybe Sema will give me some insight.

Thanks to all who have posted comments!!

Tracy, I was gonna comment on that thing too, but we may never see that car finished:_paranoid

Jason,your work is top shelf stuff:thumbsup:

Pick a font, color, and size. It's the least I can do considering inspiration and awe your project has brought to numerous Lat-G members. :thumbsup:

There is no way this car will not get finished. You do not know Jason at all if you think this. Unless the POS state of california finally breaks off into the pacific ocean and this car as well as the shop falls in with it, WAR will get finished.

Steel spoilers are GAY

Your photography skills are great (fab work ain't too shabby neither...)

:cool:

Trust me you guys know thats not going to happen not with this maniac!!!

Mario without words is like a fish without water. It just ain't right

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

WHY DOES HE SPEAK............:P

Very, very nice Jason. Nice to see it on the ground.
Keep up the great work and keep us posted.:thumbsup:

I have wondered that also

Just read the entire 64 pages. Words cannot describe how good the craftsmanship in this build is! If this is your first time doing this, you have an unbelievable talent! Where did you learn to fabricate? I would give an arm and a leg to be able to do the things you are doing!! I would love to learn how to do the type of builds/fabrication that's being done by yourself and others on this site.

Congrats to you on building a dream car and for having a great talent to do so yourself!!

Man Jason, 5000 plus views in 3 days. Todd must be scared.

This by far has to be the most impressive build ever posted on this site.

Scott - you need to add Build of the month (similar to Member Feature)

On the ground--man that's gotta feel so good--all that work is paying off. The stance of it in the rear looks amazing--with that big tire---That's Gold Jason--Gold. LOL. So, will we see you at Pleasanton in June? On the Auto Cross? I've tightened up my gaps, so we can park next to each other--I'm ok with that.

Hey Jason,

This is going back a while I know but do you happen to know the year these latches are? Or better yet are they cable type for the door handles? If they are cable did you have any issues connecting the cable to the outer door handle? I am sure it would not be too hard to fab up an adapter (especially for you!) just checking.

Thanks!

Chris

Chris, There 08's so any of the last generation ones would be the same I would assume. They do have cables for the interior and exterior but also looks like they can be electrically driven. Not sure yet, just got the harness and getting into that now. Maybe someone on here works as a Lexus tech and would know. It's not hard to adapt to the stock handle.

Thanks Jason.

I figured fabbing up something to adapt the cables to the old style would not be too hard. I found that the Lexus and Toyota latches seem to be interchangeable on certain years... Makes sense but it sure seem the Toyota stuff is cheaper.

I see where some of the very new stuff seems to be electric only, a little scary I guess. I don't know I just like the idea of being able to open the door without power.... Hmm, so did I mention I was going to be shaving my door locks? :rofl:

Thanks for the quick reply.

Chris

Jason it was great to meet up with you this week.:thumbsup: ScottM.

This is pathetic. The damn Bump stops look nicer than anything on my car! I just bought a new one to start as a project and after reading this thread I should just sell it again.

This has to be one of the finest examples of craftsmanship ever...on anything.:thumbsup:

I completely agree! Jason's work has motivated me to get to work on my car....... But, then I see the quality of my work, compared to his, and I just wanna cover it back up and go back inside and watch TV!

LOL. Can you imagine bringing your car to an event, and then in rolls Jason with this one and puts it right next yours? June, Pleasanton--I'm hoping it doesn't happen to me.

BW

When he walks away to look at cars, Take a car cover and throw on his car every time. :unibrow:

Jason has motivated me to.... uh.... <thinking>..... uh...... <gears clanking>..... uh..... have someone else build me a car.... that way I can blame them for it not looking nearly as kool!

SOB should be a paid spokesman for Mittler Brothers bead rollers.... :rofl:


Jason -- was fun at SEMA buddy! Good to see you again.

Ha Ha Ha. My bead roller must be a bad one, my stuff never looks that's good! Gotta be the roller right?:D

This thing is insane, the quality of the work is amazing.I am blown away. :hail:
