Tell your wife to come out of the bedroom so she can also read this but dont let her look at the pictures.
When the car was at HI-END,he took the strip off the windshield cause of Virginia laws,and yes I painted the cobra emblem orange cause some of the black was flaking off. I had all of the windows retinted 15% only because there were a few places where the tint was messed up. Im to picky. I ordered some wheels from Steve at true forged a few weeks ago. They are the mach 5 wheels with a brushed alum. center,polished lips,and custom airbrushed orange cobras on the centercaps. I got the 3 piece wheels so they have the bolts on them also. The fronts are 18x9 inch with the big brake cut and the rears 18x11. They should look good. I wanted to get some a little different instead of all polished. The tires are BFG kdw and are 265/35/18 front and 335/30/18 for the rears. The wheels will be flush mount but im going to roll the fenders because they are wide meats. I bought a afco heat exchanger which I polished myself and and stenciled TERMINATOR on it in orange but on a slant instead of straight,again just to be different. Looks awesome. Got a P-FAB brushed alum.coolant tank and painted the ring also in orange. Both from Lethal.Gonna get the P-FAB for the radiator, but they were out for now. They are not on the car yet so I can do everything at one time. I will take post some photos of them so you can see what I have done as soon as I can. But Im new, so be patient, Im learning.The wheels are still being built. He said they just got started on them cause he was busy at SEMA. But I will post them also when I get them. After the exterior is done, The motor and tranny are next. Right now Im going with a KENNE BELL LC 2.8 mammoth or a Procharger F1A cog race. I just dont know yet. I wish that I could hear the F1A in person though. I like the supercharger whine and heard that the F1A is loud.'OH YEA'. If I get something that whines, 'I WANT IT TO WHINE' Im not looking for the highest HP like turbos would give me. I know alot of people say to go turbo, but the turbos just aint me. Who knows, im still not sure yet.
Tell your wife that I wont post more of the car photos yet until she calms down,but as the transformation begins, there will be more to come. MAN, I feel like I wrote a book ! Talk to ya later.

WOW, those are some really big plans!! Keep us all updated and post lots of pics.
