Yeah, JC is a lovable character. Emphasize the word "Character".

Who but a character would do the kinds of things to a little 1500cc station wagon that we have both done to ours... I have been called a character by almost everyone since I was little... Hell, I've been called a lot worse.

Doing big things down in TX

Nice pics....you need to get the 949s powder coated the same color you end up deciding on the cage. Red was a really good look on your car previously.

haha thanks man! Well ive decided just to paint the inside and cage bronze just like my wheels. I dont want to spend an ass ton of time on it. I had to spot prime a few spots that i missed before i went to the track and really realize how much work its going to take to make the cage a different color than the interior. it will be hard because my cage is welded to the chassis completely. every time it comes into contact its been welded. talk about a lot of tape and time. screw it, bronze she goes haha.
