Now that's what I call slammed....when the car is shorter then your daughter...it's slammed. Cool!
 
So did the car ever pass inspection? Are you driving it? Looks cool... but, I am kinda partial to wagons :D
 
uuuummmmmm...the wagon told me to do it...lol
i originally took it to the inspector when the car was still in one piece but he was messing with it for more cash and i would say jealousy, i realised he was never going to give me the certificate. the last straw was when he hacked at the rear main seal (on the motor), i put her straight up the trailor and took her home, figured, if i can't get her on the road, i'll have a play with it instead.
I ended up selling her to a bloke that completed it and dropped a big block sorry a blown big block in her and took it to some burnout show......unfortunately i' m still waiting for pics.
here is a pic of when she lef my hands..... yes i cried like a baby watching as she left my street but with all that behind me now i'm going a diferent way with the car scene and build the lot my self and when finished the inspector i choose will be a hot rod lover like me and UNDERSTAND it all like how much of your heart and soul you have put in to it. so no messing around with tossers.
cheers Rob
