Are you customizing or just one colour? _____________________________ :::::::::::::::::::::::::: little girl in a big truck::::::::::::::::::::::::::: (in reply to zero psi) Post #: 2

I forgot. I'm jealous because I wanted one, too, but I ended up with a 93...I'll have to settle for riding in my girlfriend's Jeep with the the top off (the Jeep's, not hers) Well then, if we factor in the "less work" factor, maybe the soft top is the best choice! Me, I'm going for the paint job on mine... _____________________________ :::::::::::::::::::::::::: little girl in a big truck::::::::::::::::::::::::::: (in reply to zero psi) Post #: 4

I wish I had pics from this car show my father-in-law runs up here in Toronto...the cars and trucks there are sick! I took a few in black and white, as it was all I had for film, so when I get them developed I hope they still turn out OK. I'll post some pics of some of the cars. You should see this Jeep that was customized... _____________________________ :::::::::::::::::::::::::: little girl in a big truck::::::::::::::::::::::::::: (in reply to zero psi) Post #: 12
