Very nice looking.  Hard to believe you actually drove your baby on a gravel road.  What did you do, drive it there wash it on the grass and push it onto the gravel :)

Yeh, it does a fair amount, i repainted it just before I went for a short drive to take that picture, and somhow it still would catch on things.

 

i am working on a hood for the car, but havnt had alot of time, but i plan on moving it to my new place and working on it here, hopefully getting it finished in time for summer.

I ask because I have a lip on the front of my car as well. I want to lower my car and that really is not going to help my case at all. I am considering taking off the front lip...but searching for better ideas so that I can lower my car and keep the fron lip on.

lower the car then put a larger series of tires on the front.. =p kinda defeats the purpous of lowering tho, eh.

ive read of some people putting casters just below the lip so if you are going over a speedbump, the casters take the nose up and over without catching. have to mount them to the frame tho.

The fender vents do look nice. Just got to find a way to make them functional.  Maybe a duct going around to the brake area?

ah, but they are functional, in addition to adding "WOO" factor to the car, it, ummmm.. allows the interior to vent outside?

Hmm like  the old Chevy P/U trucks that had a floor pop vent in the kick panel to let in fresh air.  Hmm you might be able to swing something like that.
