Awesome sequence of photos. That's a strong comeback for shure. That Ford GT is great. I want it. I'm guessing you grafted a RX-7 front end on a Jota? :???:

Damn you! I've had a Jota-to-GT40 conversion in the works for almost a year now. Serves me right to take so long. Mine's aiming to be a '68 GT40, though, not the new one.

Yagbols, you've got style in spades. Every one of your cars has a distinctive look that if it were posted anonymously, it would be easy to say, "oh, that's a yagbols ride."

I totally love how you opened the drivers window on the Veedub and left the other one closed... subtle genius, man... And the headlights, ALL the detail... aww, shit, let's face it, everything about that GT is killer...

Hi Pimps, Thanks all for the props! Initially i just wanted to do one...but then I felt pressured in my previous thread. So I had to work double time...I just felt that i needed to make up for the past years. Im glad you pimps like it. :)

honda_s2000: Thanks im glad you noticed:)

DT: Thanks mang! couldnt have done it without you reminding me of the good 'ol days

Masta Cabo: Thanks! how do I upload to my album?

SuperFly/Hue35: Thanks i really appreciate your comment. I guess we all have a look thats distinct.:) I was kinda worried about the GT, i thought maybe someone thought of it already:)

CrazyDave: The color of my bug reminded me or your cali bug way back.:)

Sky: thanks bro, it used to be a jota.

Bird: I like little details, it adds a little surprise to those looking.:)

The porsche to me had a perfect body that i didnt want to mess with, so i just added that spoiler, and a pearl blue coat of paint, lowered it a bit and liked the way the stock bronze rims contrasted with the color of the body paint.

The Bug at first concept was supposed to have a ragtop just like hiroto34s mini, which was very inspiring...and then i saw this bug in a magazine with a tiltup moonroof! So i thought that i just had to do this with my bug. I had to make 3 color changes with this car, the first was supposed to be a two-tone..but the color wasnt what i had in mind...then i got me a purple sray can...but it looked too much like grimace...so i said fuck it...and got my silver leaf can and sprayed away...and topped it with clear blue to get that mettalic look. The porsche wing just fitted in nicely...so i decided to keep it that way. Then i went in the interior and chopped up a hero-clix WW2 soldier and made him into a rally driver.(ill take a pic of him later) And installed a roll cage, and a beetle dash and racing seats.

The Ford GT was supposed to be my comeback piece, and took me a long time to make...along with research and some prodding from my officemate pubejoolz. (BTW, hasselhoff is in the crowd..lol) It is a lambo Jota with lots of sanding and puttywork. Thank goodness for decal sheets! I couldnt have pulled this one off without the decals. I used here a superbit chassis with pullback tires coz i wanted it to look really wide and sporty. Then i got the eingine from a bitracer chassis to complete the look. And lots of clearcoat and polishing! lol :eek: :???:

Im glad, these 3 projects are off my chest...and now im off to the next projects!

Just so no one thinks I'm talkin' shit:

Here's my GT40 in progress. I spent so much time fussing with the body I'm afraid to paint it.

Gonna be tough to finish it, the bar is set high! :shock:
