Ok guys I'm a car audio builder of 15 years, I'm also a welder/fabricator, painter and pretty much do everything but interior work if it requires stitching. I have been posting up lots of my work and customer builds and have got inquired about my own personal rides so here is one of them. The pictures are how I built the car for SEMA 2012 and I'm currently in the process of completely redoing the entire car in between the customers cars I got! I'll post up before pics and what I have done so far and try to update daily any progress I do I'm on the forum nightly.

Dura glass to fill in any extra gaps in the metal

Body filler all sanded down and roughed in ready for final block

Both sides primered up looks sick with the vents and no handles complements the lines of this car making them stand out even more now

Since I'm changing the color to a bright blue and had the interior stripped out to weld I decided to paint all the original pieces that were white to blue and the inner headlights as well get that part out of the way so when the car is painted just gotta reassemble

Put the headlights back on for obvious reasons but couldn't help but see how the blue looked with the dashboard leather and carbon fiber
