Yeah - I was going to say that when I saw the pics - hey that's my driveway. About the only time I've ever been able to see it through all the cars.

A couple more

Just thought I would post some pictures of "little Baxter" I just did. I just need to find a roof rack for it I gave it a little camber in the back and narrowed the front a little also. I want to do a few more things to it eventually but for now I think it is a good tribute to my old friend.

That is very cool.

Wow!!! Badass!

then all you need are some paper clips and a solder gun

Looks good Gary!

No you have to make it look like today by bastardizing it by ripping out the panels, fucking up the suspension, sanding off the logo and taking off the door signs with a rusty coffee can lid!

Hey hey hey.... Baxter was just a well known car and you changed him. A lot of people liked him the way he was. No reason to go insult Elvis though

i happen to know baxter is going through another stage of his life, hes watching his health and his looks, i know cuz ive been sanding on him lol,

I think he is in good hands now and I look forward to seeing how he turns out

i'm starting to get the idea, that baxter was sold somewhere during the progression of this topic lol

Any pics of the progress, or is there just going to be some sort of grand unveiling ?

but if it were mine, i'd prolly just fix the imperfections (like that big crater on the hood, lol), and paint the inside black to match. and prolly hide a cd player radio somewhere, and keep the stock one for looks. also some kickers hidden somewhere. other then that, i'd just roll it the way it is.
