Looks great.
I am pretty anxious as I am leaving in the morning. I will check in next week if I can get a connection from down there.
Thanks again for doing this and working with me on the details.

I was undecided on my hubs Pappy but I think you just changed my mind with those pics...this fire red is awsome. Looks like a few of us got the stealth black/fire red scheme going...
Pappy
01-21-2006, 05:38 PM
i havent decided what color to shot this frame yet. he will be running black plastic, i kind of thought stealth frame and sub with a red graphics kit would look low key but way cool:bandit:

Yeah I also have been debating black or silver at the start. It looks like I will be running the yellow stockers for now but the black frame/red/silver and chrome I have going would be great with black plastics....Looking great guy...
Pappy

silver with this combo would look sweet!

it should look pretty sick when reassembled. his frame was dropped off this morning for stripping so maybe this weekend i will shoot it.
i bet he is thinking more of his parts then catching fish in brazil:D
