Here is a rendition that I modified in photoshop to reflect the general outcome of the build. The original artwork was not mine, but I changed colors around and added the logo I came up with for the car.

Here is a picture from when I first saw the car in person. It sat in a barn since 1988, mismatched wheels, primered and rear quarter damage from an old fender bender. The car was a rare one, gold exterior, black vinyl top and two tone leather interior... Black and Gold leather... Also an original A/C and Power Windows car. At some point in the 80's a previous owner installed leopard skin fabric over the headliner and overhead console:banghead::screwy:

So I loaded her up and headed home on a 10 hour drive.

Once I arrived home, I couldn't sleep due to excitement. Regardless of driving for 20 straight hours, as soon as I arrived home, I tried to breathe life into her after decades of sitting. A battery, starter, distributor and oil change... and this is the outcome.
