Whats up guys I'd like to see some before and after pics of some show cars one here. You know a little encouragement for some of the guys that keep dumping money and never seem to get near their dream car. Ive seen some really nice cars on here.

Mine started like this and it stayed that way for 10 yrs..
View attachment 457370

Then I decided I wanted/ needed new rims which meant I need to change from 4 lug to 5 lug.


And then I thought as long as I was changing things why not
View attachment 457374
and
View attachment 457376

Then I decided I need a new paint job and added something to the exterior
View attachment 457378

And it ended up looking something like this
View attachment 457380

But it’s been over 2 yrs now since my last mod, and gonna change things again

Here's my '79 Cobra in January of 2000, complete with a monstrous 131 hp/Turbo 4 cylinder, TRX wheels and no rear spoiler ('79 Cobras didn't come with one).



Here it is today with my 307 rwhp 306, Weld Draglites and rear spoiler.



One more of each. Can you tell the difference between the 35Mmm camera pic's and my newer 4x megapixel Nikon?
