Oh, and the wheels don't look too bad either. They remind me of the wheels on the GT40 MKII LeMans cars, which I think are some of the coolest cars ever made.

Matt

BTW, I know you guys make everything from carbon fiber parts to action figures, so when are you going to make a model of this car
Well, that could be a reality since there are die cast cars of some of Pure Vision's other cars and both Strope and I have contacts at Hot Wheels. You never know!

This project started in December '09 and the first few posts show the car when we first got it and then I put up pictures in a general cronological order. There has been a lot more work done on the car in the last month and a half. I need to get newer pictures from Steve from Pure Vision and Mick from Mick's paint to post what the car looks like now. Mick is finishing all the body work and metal prep for primer and eventually paint. I got an e-mail from Mick saying that the interior and trunk are pretty much done and the body is really close. I hope to have the carbon fiber hood and fenders in about a week or so which Mick will need to finalize alignment on everything. I'll get some more recent pics up soon!

I'm not sure I have ever met or seen you in person, but that might not be good for business. I'm just saying.....


I like the wheels Matt.

Matt;I think you would have all the female model's coming over & checking out the new guy on the floor.Might get thing's buzzing around your car.I'd have a polishing towel in one hand & a double cheese burger in the other. I will try not to drip on the fresh paint.

Yeah......I'll call you Scott when I need your services.
Kinda reminds me of an episode of "Married with Children" when Al was talking to his neighbor about a perfect evening watching the game on TV with a slice in one hand and a greasy hooter in the other.

...and that reminds me of another episode where he was talking about some alien babes from space (not the ones from across the border) that had 3 breasts. The neighbor goes, "whats the third one for?". Al says... "on the back,..for dancing!

That's funny! It would definitely draw a crowd.
Just so everyone knows. Scott built the bitchin' '69 Camaro that looks like the blue Sunoco Trans Am Camaro. He's running some of our parts on it, and is one of the coolest Camaros out there and was featured in Hot Rod not too long ago. Scott is pretty humble, but he's a very good fabricator. (As are you, Rodger!) And Scott's a good lookin' guy, but as far as big guys go, Rodger, he puts you to shame.
