Hey, Rich, who's the rotten creep who put your clutch cable on the wrong side?

Nice looking car, dude.

And that bird-poop coupe has to be the saddest 'before' pic I've ever seen.

Here's the first weekend I had that car. Had it running within about 2 hours of owning it, then started rubbing out the old paint. I ended up painting the hood, nose, and right fender (so far).

before:

after:

Boy, I really need to get some more after shots. That's way out of focus. I think the lense was fogging over or something.

Before:

I bought the car in '03 but had so many other projects going on, I had to put her in storage. Pulled her out in '07 only to find her paint was too far gone.

After:

No worries though, I've always hated those sidemarkers anyways
