Pearl Metallic Yellow

This car had been abandoned for over 18 months at my condominium complex in San Diego. I purchased it from the owner in Jan 2007, after he had moved to the East Coast. It's been a three year project in the making, due to me going on back to back deployments to Afghanistan and Iraq, and being stationed away from San Diego, in Lemoore, CA. It's been a great partnership with Deftracing, Extreme Dimensions, Killerglass, C&A Automotive, Skillard Designs, and Nice & Easy Body Shop in San Diego. This car has been redone from inside out, and top to bottom! I appreciate the fact that I'm finally able to enjoy this car!
It's been great to represent the platform in 2011 at various meets and car shows. I didn't always place, but the car was always well received!

Won "Best Of Show" at the All Hands Car Show at Naval Base San Diego held on April 17th, 2011! The car will be featured in all promotional materials for the 2012 event!

I moved from San Diego to North Dallas in June 2011.
