Austin Area TW Chapter (all gens welcome, even T4Rs; heck, just make it a Toyota and we're good)

it may be shitty but everything happens for a reason man, its either a lesson or a blessing.. anywho karma takes no days off!

 

also..f-ck paint, get that bitch wrapped and save half if not more of the money, plus if you dick the paint up its expensive you can have a new part wrapped cheap. keep that in mind!!

 

Ah yea thats true Me and my wife were talking about doing that too. Would save a ton of money and just have to get the body work done at that point.

 

yeah with how the material and quality everything in the wrapping have become, ide never get a vehicle painted again, the prep alone cost more than a wrap. ide do it 10x before ide do paint

 

didnt even start yet and already saving some good $$ @Sleipnir i got ya back jack

 

That's a candidate for Chip Foose and Overhaulin'.

 

i worked with chip foose on a few projects, still have a bunch of 1 off stuff he gave me along with the very 1st sketch of the GT500 Elenore for the famous "Gone in 60 Seconds" movie that Foose and Shelby drew together on canvas and sharpie!

 

Yea that would be the day Would love to have it overhauled but its close to impossible for those kind of show to pick you.









I may or may not have submitted it to garage squad though

 

Man I tell you hwat this truck will get put together eventually

 

Invite them out to C&C, and we'll bribe the producers with tacos.

 

It says I cant contact the producers directly and that I can only submit it via their site.

 

Can you email the smell of bacon?

Asking for a friend.

 

Since I sure wouldn't believe it without pics, here it is.. the Original Sketch of the "Gone in 60 Seconds" GT500 Eleanor! From Chip Foose with Carol Shelby.. your looking at a piece of history that made millions fall in love with the automotive industry and the passion for cars/trucks bringing us all together! What yall think?

 

Frame it, call Lloyd's of London.

 

You should make a killer custom wood frame and mount that sucka up!

 

i do custom woodworking ill make a frame once i get the right feel for what it wants to be. but i will check them out, thanks for ref

 

I will have to do that for sure! I moved so many times since i got it i wanted to keep it protected until i get somewhere ill be a while. i still have a bunch of art i have to frame up thats just waiting and sitting there.. need more wall space. i have a 4'x6' F1 on my wall as well lol i like art and my room is coverd, if anyone interested ill post pics. stuff we would all appreciate

 

Was looking into Halo EFX, cuz I'm not sure how I'm gonna get all the curves with one piece on a double cab.

 

Lloyd's is an insurance company - you got a rare gem there!

 

Besides body n paint, what does that thing need to drive?
