Chad G's cup of ONE EIGHT TEA!!

I love my t3 when i get a chance to shoot cool stuff...lol

some updates to this pile.

working on the sawblades... still. its going to be long and hard tedious work. all 4 are stripped down to bare metal.

heres a pic of the corrosion i'md dealing with



do werk. drink shlights. get blingin wheels. get bitches.




i painted the steelies pink. beat on the car at the graveyard autox course. then stored it for winter.

still working on sawblades. still.

i think i am gonna copy the pink wheels on the raddo!

you bastard.

updates:

car is kinda sorta for sale, but i'll pry just end up keeping it. i just want a gli or 20th... bad.



scored some free gli headlights from travis. they need refurbishing but thats no big deal.

sawblades are done! they shine up nice! not mirror finish, but they are definatly baller!
ordered 205/45 federal 595's for the front. they are in stock at work right now. i scored some free 215's from work, which is perfect for the rear of a mk4 on 9.5's.

camera battery is charging so i'll snap pics and update.

so it got cold out.

i moved whatever i could inside, i've got an extra room in the house that does nothing but hold my baller footwear assortment. so i threw the blades in there for paint.



i also picked up some paint, and some houndstooth fabric for some custom apholstery. i worked on the gli headlight lenses all day at work today to bring them back to mint.



then i decided, since i have the headlights apart, i should do some work.

That shit is baller!!!!!

That's fucking legit!!

thats pimp as fuck!

thats baller as fuck. Nice !

LOVE IT!!!!

started painting the wheels tonight... almost as much of a pain in the ass as polishing them. these things will never be done.

damn.... im loving where this is going!

to continue the tooth theme, i covered the boot today.



lots of good beer, good music and some quality gloss black enamel and this is where i'm at with the blades.





3 coats deep. the shit self levels with a small amount of odorless mineral spirits mixed 25/75. i have some small areas to touch up, but it'll be glass smooth in the pockets. i've got 12+ hrs into these wheels at this point.

This is fantastic Chad... I love the way the wheels are coming out!

finished the painting, sanding and polishing. then brought them to work and wrapped some stretched rubber around them. they turned out great!

Looking good. Saw them chillen yesterday while you were inside chillen.

this project is slow like grandpa status.

got crome mirror caps that will look baller with the polished blades.

smoked bumper lenses and sidemarkers installed.

got adapters, finished rolling the fenders.

mounted up!



wired up the fogs in the gli headlights



i've got to work the stance into a more daily-able height. the rear needs to be dropped an inch. the front needs to be raised up about a half inch or so to help my axel bind. i need to notch the frame, set the height, and give it an alignment.

i may mod the axel to try to aid in the binding problem. but i'm pretty sure it needs a new axel anyway.

Looking good mayne!

Looks good. Pretty sure the kid you bought this from picked up the spare A/C from me, car looks familiar in the first post. I like what your doing to it much more however. Keep it up.

thank you sir! yes this car has quite the story behind it. it was just going to be my winter beater when i bought it...

the funny thing is, it pry just needs a single o-ring or a line. i dont know why he thought he needed the entire system. but i'll look into that when it gets hot. it'll be an easy fix.

love the accent trim on the headlight!!!

looking good!

soooo raw! looks fucking good man!
