its one of the few local cars featured that ive seen in real life, that looks as good if not better than it does in the pics. others seem to be shabby up close.

Yer dont look bad at all. Has the welds been checked, as in dye pen? Just thinkin of air leaks.
Ally is funny stuff to weld. You have to heat it up as it wont weld at first, then once you have warmed it up, you start welding then it gets to hot really quick, and melts away
Got to be experience to get good at it
