BLASPEMY! And how could it be rusting?! You live in cali, land of the sun! Seriously you cannot let it go. Are you serious is it really dead? What is left to be done? Can I have you wheels?
Unfortunatly ,after spending over 40,000 bucks on that thing....yes, ITS DEAD!(but still drivable). i still need another 15-20,000 to finish that thing.
i got discouraged after getting ripped off a few times.For instance ,the owner of the burgandy mazda in the pics below mine.Nice ride and great glass work, the owners name is Shane. I paid him a few hundred bucks to make me a dash...well guess what.i never got it ,and he stopped contacting me.This kind fo stuff happend to me over and over.
Not only that, my little girl is growing way too fast and i've got family to support.
When i did have a few bucks to spend on it ,my buddies at the custom shop did not have time and or would not return my phone calls to get some work done.
Now i really can't afford to continue on that thing.
I could'nt afford to drive it even if it was finished (i get 5 miles to a gallon ,thats what i get for building a hot rod).
whats left to do on it:
bodyworkpaint interiordashconsolestereo enclosure/installglass (custom made)engine compartmentengine (fuel injection)
yes ,I estimate that to be around 15- 20 grand for quality work.
i make great money as a tanker driver, but not great enough with the way things are for me (financially )today.
You want my wheels sonikk?
NO!! you cannot have my wheels. i paid 6000 bucks for those wheels and tires.4300 to have bonspeed custom make my rims to specs.Those are just going to rot with the rest of it.
