Hmmm, thought I smarta$$ed you on this before but guess I wasn't feeling particularly rude (in a humorous fashion) but I think the wheels look better on the car than you bowling with them.

But seriously, man, the dedication and love for your car shows. Very nice.

Cheers,
Mic

My philosophy is once you have a Z in your possession, there is no such thing as 'good enough'. I mean if your flavor is basic, more power to you brotha ✌️ it's all love

Any Z (or any other car that is above the "A-B appliance level" - and even those ackshully if owner wants more from it) is merely a canvas to the owner.

My cars are very stock appearing other than wheels and that's my thing. BUT lawdy lawdy there's some uber-trick cars out there that, whether I'm into them or not, HAVE to be appreciated for the love, attention, and yes, money that's put into them to make them their owner's OWN.

I'd never camber out a Z, I'd never build a '64 Imp lowrider, and I'd never build an SUV but I have seen all of those types of vehicles that I drool over.

Of course, I respect another owners build. To each his or her own flavor and I appreciate that we all share the love for our cars. There is no right or wrong way to paint your canvas. As long as you love it, show it!

Lol its just that we have our own direction with our Zs. It has been a dream since I've had her to do all kinds, not a wise investment but it is something I love <3 lol

Exactly! Agreed! I should have quoted the earlier comment where the guy basically dissed Sally, not your quote. My canvas comment was more in response to that remark.

I like it, it's the completely stock Z's with the big *** wing that look awful. I think your car is really pulling it off and I am digging it OP. Keep it up.

Thank you, it means a lot
Yes I've seen some setups and they didn't flow completely right. I can't knock anyone's love for modding their cars though lol. It just takes time to have her the way you want (thats what she said lol)

The problem with that is that over that time it takes to get it "right", one's "itch" or urge to do something "new" or "different" takes over and the cycle repeats itself.

Ask me how I know. Hahahahaha!

I know the feels
My buddies say I'm already done with the body aesthetics and I still feel I need to redo almost everything
But it's okay! Endless projects for the win haha

Over at Stancenation on Saturday. Really good vibes and a great community out there in Los Angeles. It was refreshing seeing so many beautiful builds. More motivation to finish Sally faster 😈
