That looks sweeeet..... ;)

Is that Lexus indigo ink pearl?

What color are the stripes.  

I see you went with a lot of the same options I did, round tail lites, blue/silver color, glove box.

Great looking car, your gonna have a blast.

Dan.

dan,

You know your colors, Lexus indigo ink and Lambo 210600.  It is pretty similar to yours, except you'll be pushin more ponies.  It was between Ryan Cassidy's gray/silver and Greg M's FFR indigo/silver.  There's just something about that indigo that I love. thanks for the compliments, same to you.

What tires and wheels did you end up using?
Title: Re: HM1116 build pics
Post by: sbenso on May 15, 2008, 12:31:30 AM
the wheels are the 17" Upgrade Vintage Wheels that Hurricane offers, the tires are Sumitomo HTRZ P275/40ZR-17 front and 315/35ZR-17 rear. I waited over 2 months for some Kumho Ecsta MX's that were on backorder and decided to change the the Sumitomo's, I think I saved over $200 for the set. good luck

jim's correct, the headers/sidepipes are getting coated at Jet-Hot and the motor and trans should be here in a few weeks...I hope.

Here is a pic of my sidepipe that was sent back to HMS-Texas due to arriving damaged upon arrival, it's still there. I had to order a pair of sidepipes from International Wholesale (Thanks Dan), add the fittings and frame mount and have it recoated, as well as the header after I sectioned all the primary tubes from the flange and rewelded, in and out of the car about 10 times. but all it good now.

start of the AC install; When I first started i was pretty sure it wasn't going to fit, but I said what the hell and started cutting a hole in the firewall.

It looks great Shawn, hard to believe you can keep from driving long enough to take pictures...I noticed you have the round tail lights, I got those too but the body came with the cut outs for the rectangular units so I need to redo those.
