it's amazin at all the different techniques that u can use but still get the same end result.... everybody to has there own way... u, u just do it however u f'in feel like for that paticular job and me, i don't care cuz it still looks like the sex

LOL.....yea....i do try out alot of techniques....whatever seems like a good idea at the time..

I feel like i learned quite a but of stuff to do differently...on the front..

[groundpounder2k2]

YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS starting on the front bumper! i'm excited. definitely been wanting to see how this was gonna turn out. so far so good i'd say

very similar to the rear bumper....

ah shit...more fun!

so whats left with this thing?

-front bumper

-side skirts

-did u say u still had to finish the hood?

-wheel wells

-bags

-paint

....? more?

I may crush it before i get through that list....

[LSN2meBoom916]

Well you beat me to it on the redneck hijacker coils.....

But you do what you gotta do bro...No sense in spending $$$ for some ish that won't get used and will be replaced before long anyway. Save that $$$ for the FUN materials

I'll take glassworx pix over "I got some new shocks" pix ANYDAY!

The front is def lookin dope w/ the 1/8" guide boards...I'm lookin forward to seein what you do w/ the grill/front end area fasho....

And please don't do any of that "tribal" decor on the sideskirts.....just somethin clean and "sharp".

I'm sure you'll put it off pimpin

[groundpounder2k2]

ok..............ive coughed up alot of pix ..over tha last couple days.......gotten a few replys.......

i have alot more pix.....but i aint given em up.....till all you "browserz" leave some feedback.....good or bad....if ya like it ...if ya dont......let me know

ok you said any feed back is welcome pretty much. the only think i gotta ask is how often have you asked yourself why am i doing all this work to THIS car? or if you have not asked yourself that question ask you wife and let me know what she says. i would love to hear her take on it.

by the way this car is gorgeaous i used to have one just like it but with out all the work put into it. of course. i loved it until it died on the track

Yes very often i ask myself that....but i know the answer.....in all honesty.....this has nothing to do with what kind of car it is...its all about my love for fiberglass fabrication.....The car audio side of it.....really not alot of interest in it...anymore....Honestly And straight up truth.....most of this shit wouldnt be done if it werent for these forums,,,,,alot of these projects are for youguys.....cuz i love to share my builds....and all my photos...my art......i just truely love to build.....and be able to take somthing thats burning in my skull.....and not only put it right here in front of you............but share the entire build....thats what i love.....as you guys have surely figured out by now......I have no social life.....Im a hermit....in my garage.....or my house...with my family...But when im not at my Job...........this is it....this is me......during the week ill try to get in 20 hrs...on the car...weekends....another 20.......granted i never get a full 40 in a week on the car.....with family and other shit...lolbut i do put ALOT of hours into it...probably more than i should....some people get off a day of work and relax...in the recliner.....watching discovery channel........I BUILD SHIT

why an 88 Cavalier.......well....when i sold my Xtreme van i was projectless http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/mad.gif ......a good friend who ive known for a lot of years....got a new car....and asked if i wanted this ol girl ..so i took it....I thought.....man i have this huge pile of equipment....from memphis....Ill try and pack it all in this Z.......thatll be cool.........whod a thought I still be builden away.....it all started here....

Back when I first got the Cavalier..

no....we wont as the ol lady ....her opinion.........we will just leave that one alone....for the moment....

[groundpounder2k2]

thats how bad i am...........Joey told me hed be up in a week or so(from texas) to get the van...

while waiting for him....I was already starting on the car.....(you can see the van in the garage)

looks killer tim! now get back to work

[groundpounder2k2]

I don't want to try to take words from GP, but my view on things is you work with what you have available to you. Not everybody can start out with amazing cars like the hoopty etc. My guess is that you would have to agree with me in saying that GP has been able to take a mediocre car and turn it into an amazing work of art, and he isn't even done yet.

yea.............there is alot to be desired....with an 88 J body...lol

mediocre is probably a compliment

[bibby>Chode]

it's looking badass bro! I am glad you are starting on the front. I've been waiting for it since the beginning!

[groundpounder2k2]

looks killer tim! now get back to work
