Thats fantastic dude, congrats...

I just did that for the first time saturday morning, there's no other feeling like it.

 

Seems like the link works...haha, check out the second video when I drive by my fiance(the shakey camera-woman) with the stupidest grin on my face! And then I try to act SO cool when I get out and shut the car off! Just thought I'd share...I like the "first time" car posts!

Adam

Sorry for any motion sickness caused by the filming!

 

Awesome rod, man...

Like the Chevy in the Garage...

Later.

Troy.

 

And one more thing...I burned rubber in the second video, you just don't hear it very well. Can you tell I am excited yet???

 

So cooool man, i know exactly how you feel. Isnt it sensacional?

Nick

 

Nice video and a sweet looking ride. I took my dramameen (sp?) before watching though to avoid getting sea sick. Keep up the great work and keep us posted .

Awesome job Adam! I love the wire rims also.

The chrome grille shell is the perfect touch against the black body.

Too cool.
