That's some crazy bad ass wielding, and things you did. Makes me want to keep mine now in hopes of a shiny day. I give you props for going that far, but donating money? I'm willing to donate a few bucks as long as u slap a giant sticker of my name on your car and clear coat it!

It's going to get done sooner or later. The part that kills me is my Tundra that I bought, it is costing me $500 a month for it just sitting there. Thats money I could be putting in my car, and it's killing me not to be able to drive the celi.

may i ask why all the information and pictures have been deleted out of this thread? its making me angry He told me that he was tired of all the S*** talking and high school drama so he deleated all his pics and hasn't logged on since. I know he still has this car but hasn't worked on it for over a year. I wish he would finish it cause it is a sweet car and I want to go for a ride! |
