Hahahaha. Nice. 1 of your wheels equals 2.5 of mine. 
You're going to need two motors with those boat anchors and all the stereo equipment and airbag suspension that's going into it.
But, it's going to looking freakin' sweet!

when you look this good you don't need to go fast.
honestly i wouldn't even go past bolt ons for the engine if i hadn't dumped so much money everywhere else. gotta keep it well rounded ya know?

IMO, if you're going for a true showcar and you want to start bringing home trophies (if you care), you're going to need some sort of FI and some bling under the hood as well. Then the car will be "well rounded".

there will be plenty of "bling" under the hood. i will be doing a combination of black powder coating, chroming, stainless lines, and some secret details on every part, line, and bracket.
as for fi its just not my thing, although i do plan what some may call a major all-motor build.

well if i see anybody lookin at me like i'm poor i can:
A) hit switches on them b**hes
B) pull out $5k in suspension receipts
C) not care what ppl think
D) all of the above
it looks kind of nasty right now because of the state of the car and bad fitting temp wheels, but when its all put together with flush 19s and slammed it wont be an issue.

i wouldnt... more like: "Damn that thing is slammed. Must be on bags or something." If the car was rolling around with a primer paintjob and bondo patch job like it is now, then yeah, id probably think he cut springs or some other ghetto method.
