Still with TONS of work ahead of me, I don't know if I'll ever be ready for COTM! So much to do yet, and that's not to mention the painting and bodywork,(lots of ppl in this town don't really care how close they are when the throw open their door) hopefully some work will get done by summer. Anyone else out there in the same boat? Wanna show off their girl but know she's not done up enough to be presentable?

That's what the showroom subforum is for.

I think the real question here is, Is COTM ready for joo!?

Yeah, I know, but the girl is still a little camera shy, (still gotta fix the pass fender as well as a few dings and some sap that dripped on her). And well, I am a bit of a perfectionist so... no COTM is still a no-go as of right now.

I reiterate my offer/threat: there better be SOMEBODY in every COTM . . . otherwise you'll be getting MY car as COTM and trust me it ain't as nice looking as yours, no matter how far into a project you are!

I definitely feel ya on that one man. Still got lots of work myself. Too many problems and the old owner treated it like trash imho.

Yeah, I know what you are saying, the previous owner used to take mine down dirt roads following too closely to other vehicles.

And stopping stuff with his fender.

And not engaging in proper maintenance(tranny oil, filters, etc.)

Not to mention how much of an idiot he was when he installed the CAI.

How about a "Under Construction" COTM! lol

Considering my motor is in the garage and the car is outside......
