I have a solution for you. Since the Toyota has a good battery, put the Craftsman engine in it.

Rolex that has to be the best thing you have ever come up with! I am going to do it....
Hey any one with photo shop.. Can you take my car and change the paint to midnite blue..so I can see how it will look.
 
DO NOT.......DO NOT change the color. Keeping a classic stock is best. Also, if you go with a color change, you're talking a major amount of work with door jams, trunk and hood undersides, etc.

You might be a redneck if the cars in your yard don't work, but the washing machine does.
 
I couldnt get it midnight blue my program wouldnt get it that dark but here is it in basic blue with a trippy background lol


 
I know what you mean about working on your truck when its lifted,I think the worst thing to do is to change the water pump and trying to get down in there. Before I got hurt and worked on my truck also lifted. I would climb into the engine compartment and sit on the fender well lol. And your dodge is alot taller than my truck it only got a 3 inch body lift and 33 inch tires. Looks like you have at least a 6 inch lift and what are those 35,s?
 
Dark blue, without the trippy background.
Just a basic paint job. I didn't do inside the hood, trunk and door jams.
I tinted your windows, though. No extra charge.

lol nice job Rolex, But I think you have some orange peal on the quarter panel lmao
 
Lol better get to work ZANDOR, make that baby shine!!! What about the run down the passenger side door Rolex?? LOL
 
You're complaining about a little run? Damn, man. You've got overspray covering his entire yard!!! You've even pissed off his neighbors!
 
Well she is going to the body shop in two weeks...and a midnite blue paint job... the wife picked the color so we are going to run with it...Ill get pics of it along the way.I can't wait till I see it finished..
I sold my condo..for a 60G profit....I am happy :cheers:
 
Do a GT4 conversion, get JDM GT4 front clip for like $1500, then get the rear end and suspension. LSD, upgraded clutch/flywheel, turbo, engine management. If you do most of the work yourself, you could have a beast for less than $6k

Well if Zandor would move all of his Rc,s out of the garage I would have had a better place to spray it lol

LOL......yup, you're probably right. Since it was just a temporary paint job, I did the Bird with a roller. What you thought was orange peel was roller lint.
 
Lmao! I used rattle cans the ones you get at walmart of 88 cent they work the best :)
