Ok , here are a few pictures I took today.. As I said earlier, the front valance panel is repaired/painted, along with the four corner marker assemblies (thank you again Mike!). The front push bar has been cleaned up (We think a 10 year old kid put it together.. Nice welds..) and ready for paint. All in all the ONLY paint the car needs from here is the flat black on the rear tail light panel.



If you saw this before you'd appreciate it now.. It was a mess, twisted, dented, scraped...





Going to be done in a Gloss Black













This shot is awesome, it really hit the metallic:



Here's Big C inside the car while it was running... I guess seats would probably help a bit





TO BE CONTINUED.......

I agree on the horns being off. I'm glad it wasn't just me, only I bet it would have been better for Jeff.....  :shruggy:

Don't you worry, they'll be right again  :icon_smile_big:

I know how much y'all love the GL and it's horn!!

There's a guy around here with a GL. everywhere he goes he's laying on the horn. Everyone always wants to choke him. It's VERY annoying.

Holy Sh$#balls! The phone didn't do it justice and blew the speaker anyways.  Just put the computer surround on and it sounded like the car was in my house.  I agree, sounds like a drag car.  :2thumbs: :2thumbs: :2thumbs:

When I come down next week or the week after, I'll bring my other horn from the wreck, It's most likely still good but I put a new one on anyway.  We can do a little swappage and see if that in fact is the issue.  If it is, then problem solved.  :icon_smile_big:

Sounds great! I'd ditch the clown car horn.

Now, that kinda offended me alittle.  :shruggy:

That's nothing. The guy across the street from me has a dodge 1/2 ton with bull balls hanging under it. GL horns under the hood and an alarm system. Every time he sets the alarm in his driveway we all get to here DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA--DA.... Two houses over the guy that owns the house was telling me he was about to have a party over the weekend and his buddy has train horns.. He fixed the jerks ass good. The jerk came home from work and shut off his truck and locked it up with the damn alarm. DA_DA_DA etc. The buddy of my other neighbor drove his car in front of the jerks house and just LAID on the train horn for about 30 seconds. The jerk came out screaming and the rest of the neighborhood was out there saying: (IT SOUNDS BETTER THAN THAT PILE OF SHIT OF YOURS).   Of course most of us knew it was coming and the plan was set.   No more DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA_DA__DA.....     :smilielol:

HE is coming together well and now you have quality folks working on your baby. Good for you and you have to be tripping to be driving instead of looking. Want those burn out pics when you get to drive HIM! Awesome work!

That would be so cool but $1500  :-\



That's too much.. The train horn kits I use come directly from the company that makes them for Amtrak. The entire kit (compressor,tank and horns) cost me around $400 and if you were to close your eyes you wouldn't know if I was the real deal or not.. It goes right through you.

Your car will stand out so you will probably get the looks. I know a guy that has one and when he blasts it around a bunch of vehicles everyone craps then wonder who it was....especially if you start looking everywhere too  :D

Yeah, It's a lot. The same company whose website I posted has Train horn kits starting in the $300-$400 range, too.

The $1500 one I posted a picture of is simply their Doomsday Machine.  :2thumbs:

Are there enough notes there to play Dixie?
