If I could create a new religion - it would revolve around words like these :-)

Very nice.

Great people and long time family friends. It's been a while since I have been up there. Who were you working with there?

Carl and Casey. It all started with a set of Valve covers for another car. Carl gave me his cell # and said call anytime! Customer service has been outstanding

We are kinda doing things different on this one since it was already painted. We wanted to mock it up before we blew everything apart and added lots of little custom touches- tucked bumpers, little carbon fiber accents. Here's a question for you guys...What color interior? The red calipers can be changed. Jason Rushforth is working on some really killer ideas. We are using some trick new pieces we saw at SEMA from Marquez. The Tiger cage is paritally installed. We are running one of Rick's tanks trick new baffled tank. Should be a fun car to get some track time with

Hey Chris, great looking car. On the calipers, in my opinion the red calipers look good but are kind of over played on so many cars. Maybe something more subtle like gunmetal grey, silver or black but with red lettering to tie into the interior?
Just a thought. It really doesn't matter because everything you turn out looks fantastic anyway.

It was great talking to you at the swapmeet. Take care buddy!
