And to JTrain...where's your 10sec time slip, bud?
Working on it, Pal -- Local track is closed. And I have better things to do-- like buy a house.

The APR widebody / Convertible is killing me- I do respect the work that went into it though. I just hate the outcome though... Sorry you posted it up for open debate- thats my opinon. I can suger coat it if you'd like?

I don't follow anyone around ragging on them.DOMO

lol I'm still on a stock block- and I definitely have DRs sittin in the garage. I'm not driving 3 hours + to make passes that will only be a few .10's faster than my last ones.

I never claimed I had a 10 second car :/ I said a 10 second full interior car is my goal ^^

Barely anybody in a Z (which is a couple hundred pounds lighter have made 10 second passes)

common "sense"? yes, not likely to have a G with full interior in the 10's, especially not with a stock block.

to each their own, but you have to admit it is different. I don't care for the paint scheme, but you have to admit it is pretty.

1. .10's the last time I check is tenths - I'm typing on the internet, I think a 3rd grade level would be to high for most. This isn't a letter to the pope.
2. Who says I can't do it... And who the hell ever said I would with a stock block??? I said it was my GOAL
3. I hate the convertable thing the most- everyone years ago wanted it- until they saw photoshops.. the photoshops were right.


I'm confused on why I get flammed for voicing my opionon- not that I really care. You all have the same right to be angry at my comments as I do a convertable G.

I do love the paint job tho

I think the work is great, but I think its ugly as hell. It doesn't flow right.

Why are you guys ragging on JTrain? It's his opinion. If you don't want to hear criticism, then why post the car?

A truly nice set up......I wouldn't do it to my G though even if I had the money, but it is sure something cool and the project looked like it went well, I give props to the people doing it for their hard work and time they put into it rather then criticize it. If you don't like it, say I don't like it, done, any more further comments are worthless and will just get you flamed on, especially if no one cares about your opinion Good Job PF!

Everything looks nice with awesome works but not that open top.

Normally, topless is just dead sexy...but not this one.

Do we know how much power does it make yet?
