I just save my money...don't eat out much...find good deal on such...and I network alot and meet more people which turns into cheaper parts too ha.

thats why the car has been a long process..just working and collecting parts...now coming to a close and some sponsors are helping out with the build which is awesome...great ass products too!

thanks for the love guys...9 days more!

Thats all I'll post on the car for awhile...gettin old of the build threads...rather just finish the car and bring it out!


Okay so obviously this couldn't have been done without the people involved!

Nac...dude thanks again for letting us use the shop...sleep in the trucks...all the po's...all that haha...trailer and everything as well! love ya homie
*hug*

Andy!! dude I can't believe you drove down 8 hours to paint this ish...thanks so much dude!!!!! Can't wait to come up and help you with the hatch...thanks so much homie *hug*

Steven...man I know you didn't expect a weekend like that haha...man thanks so much a well...you and andy are a painting duo like no other ha.....without your guys help this couldn't have happened thanks again!!!! I'll call you soon buddy *hug*

John! ha thanks fo helping out as well dude....you can tape shit off like crazy! had a blast hangin out dude shit was crazy :bang:

And finally all of my friends out there and this scene...the only reason I think I was able to stay up over 72 hours was just the fact I want this thing done so bad just so I can finally just cruise around and mob the streets with you guys this year....I'm done ridin shotgun!


So anyway...back to a story

After painting almost every last exterior piece....we ran out of paint...now..keep in mind we bought 2 gallons of paint which is more than enough to do a car inside and out. Well the paint wasn't covering well so andy and steve had to do 3 coats on mostly everyyyything...and all we had left was the top of the hood and trunk...and the body and jams of the car
:thumbdown:

so we had 2 choices....try to sleep a bit and wake up...buy paint....(place opens at 7am) spray...hope that its good to go by later that night...orrrr....drive over an hour into kentucky...and....uhh...well we got paint I'll say that ;)

obviously we took the drive..and did some crazy ass shit....man...

anyway...got back by 4am...we just loved how we gained an hour for day lights savings :thumbdown:

Finally at 6am this morning we were done....finallyyy....and managed to sleep like 3-4 hours in the back of the semi trucks.

O yah car was painted at my homie mike nac's dealership nacarato volvo and gmc...largest volvo semi dealers in the world..bigggg place! super crazy times...driving semis around and living at the dealership lol. I also never changed or showered in those 72 hours....god that smelt like shitttttttttt...so lovin home again ha

Paint still needs a little wet sand and buff...little dirt in there but that was expected from where we painted it...have some other little things to fix but yeah shit came out awesomeeeeeeeee!

sorry for the long read I'm going to sit on the couch and eat food

O and I'm not posting updates in this thread anymore....just not into the build threads anymore..plus I don't exactly live down here so not sure why I have this one here hah..makes me feel like I'm trying to get attention...I still have my one on honda-tech...you'll see the car at IA! thanks guys :)
