[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16659426, member: 70025"] Hello Todd. Thank you for always taking a look at my build. Sometimes I don't take pictures because of what I'm doing. Like this past weekend I was basically loading the car by myself, so I couldn't take pictures. However, when it comes to other projects I basically take pictures in between the process. So, I use picture time as a small break at the same time. I can't wait for my first car show either. I always tell my friends and family this is how it's going to go. Guy walks up and tells me nice car. Then he asks me who built it. Of course I say I did. Then he gives me a compliment. As he's walking off I over hear him telling his friend or significant other "There is no way in hell he built that car!" LMAO!!!! Thank you Bob. I hope this thread keeps going, but unless it stays on the "New Posts" link I think it will fade away eventually. Another member here [USER=35549]@01yellercobra[/USER] had mentioned to me about creating a photo album. I told him all my pictures are digital, but he said I could take a thumb drive to Walgreens and have them print the photos for me. I do have my build chronicled on my laptop to include my initial build from 2010. So, I have digital pictures from day 1. I also have a few hard copy pictures my brother gave me from when he had the car. They are in my tool box. Here are some I just took pictures of. I think this was between 1997 and 1998. This is in front of my brother's house. It was originally blue, but the El Paso sun fried the paint while I was in the military. My brother said the front fenders were trashed, so he got some off another car, which is why it's brown or rust LOL. [ATTACH=full]1717868[/ATTACH] This is my brother's buddies house. They were working on it together before I got it back. [ATTACH=full]1717869[/ATTACH] They did a lot of metal work. Replacing QTR panels, shaving drip rails and door handles and de-badging the car. [ATTACH=full]1717870[/ATTACH] This was the original 289 that was in the car. Check out that 70's style electronic ignition box on the driver's side engine bay LOL. [ATTACH=full]1717871[/ATTACH] We believe the car was hit on the passenger side at one point. My brother said the door pillar was bent to hell. [ATTACH=full]1717872[/ATTACH] Here you can see the side scoop was added and the new Boyd Coddington wheels were put on it. [ATTACH=full]1717873[/ATTACH] Man, this car sure has come a long way LMAO. And through so many hands...... [ATTACH=full]1717874[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
