    what kills me is how the alumarod or whatever the hell they called it was a "Boyd" car when 99% of the fab work was farmed out to that Father and Son team.

    to paint or to have painted???

    The SN65 project car

    hes going for "stock looking" but I think it would be cool to slap the mach 1 interior into that thing, or maybe the 05 including dash and all.
