    I think Jeff's was more for the WOW factor then anything. Just to hear him try to list the mod's on that thing was ridiculous.

    And I think now of days showing has reverted back to how clean can you make your car look. (If there is a show scene at all!) B/c back 6-7 years ago, there was alot of people going big. That was just the thing to do.

    Thats like remembering back when people were rolling around with Tweed interiors and if you had a 10" sub box you were bad ass. And 17's where as big as they got.

    yeah.. i wasn't into the car scene then (obviously i wasn't old enough to be! lol) but i did know some others that were... even helped my sis's ex tweed his interior!!! lol....

    i understand there is a BIG difference in show cars and performance cars... so like i said.. i can appreciate the time/effort in them....
    and from what i see there.. his mod list (as you stated) would be ridic!!

    You know I was talking to him about that car. And he said he is still paying off bills from it. LOL he had easy 60 to 70 in the car. Alot of the stuff he had was sponsorships. And he did it right by them giving him money and products. But that can only go so far. I know that car has one of the very first air ride kits on it. And people look at it and go what..... But Any of the big boys in showing have that much and more. **** look at any of the big audio companies they spend millions on there cars. To even get recognized in big shows now of days (the ones that are left) you have to have an endless bank account.
