I just went through 64 pages. 2 hours.

Its such a nice car, I love the kit. I dislike the hood.

I love J-bodys... its nice to see somebody who didn't make one look like a five dollar walmart ricer.

I didn't like the mesh idea for the rear, nor the exhaust cutouts.

but thats just me. car looks wicked.

Interior is insane. Whats with the Memphis thing? You stickerd up everything and named your son after them... Did they fund your life or something? :rolleyes:

I hope I learn to fiberglass..

Its one thing to have an opinion about the way the car looks. That is fine. What one should be noticing here is HOW THE WORK IS DONE. not the style or artistic take he puts into it. It is his car and his canvas. People make careers out of art criticism, and this car is art, rather you chose to like it or not is fine.

YOU WENT OVER THE LINE when you started in about what he chose to name his kid. did you ever stop to think He used the memphis brand out of homage to , maybe a elder family member of the same name? Or maybe the offered him a sponsorship? It doesn't matter. It is not your business.

seriously lacking in etiquette and matters - you are.

And I am sure Tim will have his own input on your comments about his son as well, so please, check back often. I know I will.

I was joking when I said that. I apologize if it was taken the wrong way. :sorry:

I agree that his fabrication skills are extremely good. I'm just stating that I'm not the biggest fan of the hood is all, although I don't mind it.

Again I apologize. :sorry:

I know I know! Its the same for me, I do stuff how I like it, not how anybody else does. I do like the hood with the smooth front end though.

I'll be keeping my mouth shut more..
