CortezDTV Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 (edited) I want to give Rusty and Ana a huge shout out thanks for all the help and all the recones also thanks Ray (DC98Hoe) and everyone else who helped me out along the way, or sold me some of my amazing equipment that took me so long to get... but finally i basically have everything, Rusty called me when i was both hands deep in my 8" box builds to tell me about a problem with the color scheme on the dust caps, but as always hes eager to help out, and we had a short conversation, i finished up my resin, and got another call, discussed many more ideas, and so on.... and changed some of my box specs, and he sent out the re-cones today so, i should have them tommarow, and i only need to buy more wire but that is a future, and this will mostly be my last build for this car This build is going to have a ton of pictures in a long process almost 2 years from my 2000 Grand Marquis LS (Luxury Sport), and then transfering to the similar car a 1999 Grand Marquis HPP (fast one) though it will be far from that when the 500+ lbs hit the trunk The first have pictures from my old car and a few builds that didnt go quite as planned... and they will continue..... I have way to much love for my first car, but it was a 1975 Cadillac Eldorado, and ive always wanted a boat again, it was barely two doors but 1.5 feet longer than my giant ass 4 door now (the crown vic) but my true baby is a 1972 Detomso Pantera thats hiding in the garage till im 30 hahaha my favorite car of all is my first Grand Marquis, which is basically a Crown victoria, or even more commonly a cop car or FBI which the amazing green and black windowed car started that way, but 3 massive accidents later , and more 4 wheeling that most 4 wheelers have ever done it turned black and got a little banged up, but this is going to be a picture story of the cars so it goes..... leave any comments you want, but no hatin take that somewhere elce we all started somewhere!
