Thanks again guys.I knew we had a cool car but never expected the response we got.Pascual and the guys have a great future.I do not have any interior or engine shots,I guess I zoned it.Here are some Scott shot.

what the hell is "kingpin" is this some surburbian word you hear your students saying??

Wow! Those engine bay shots are incredible!

I love the DSE hinges in black. Nice touch with the radiator support closeout panel and the custom radiator support braces! What color did you shoot the fenderwells and firewall?

I should be out in Sacramento next year, maybe we can do lunch and you could show off your ride. I promise not to drool all over it!

Sorry im must be dumb old and stupid im sure, Just an old word I have used for something that is done quite well..... I have used it for 20 plus years I did not mean to offend the skilled pro's

Students???? im not a teacher.... im a builder There are 37 magazine articles on me saying I might be getting close.......

I wasn't offended, just never heard of such a funny word, and I noticed you use it a lot.

Not so funny to some I think I actually picked it up from some friends at gm proving grounds quite a while back

I like the fact that there is no T.V in this car

Mother of God! It will be a force to be reckoned with. Now, if you will just paint it anything other than green..lol.. I would say flat black and let it ride!

Absolutely beautiful.

Jonny, it was great seeing the car and spending quite a bit of time with you and the Marquez boys. The car is a work of art and truely does need to be seen in person (a few times) to be fully appreciated...man they do killer work!!

Also, I wanted to mention that Pascual and his team are not only great at what they do, but also the nicest guys you could meet. Even after the SEMA thrash to get the car together and to the show, the dinner partys, and being at the booth all week, at closing time at SEMA yesterday they were still answering peoples questions with smiles on their faces! This is the kind of people it takes to 'make it' in the industry and world! Congrats to all that helped with the project, we all loved it!!
