Very slick, Im not crazy about the blue paint, but a very cool car...indeed. I have a couple of questions, Do you have any pics of the reinforcements for the frame. I have an sc400, but i have been wanting to build a radical custom car, i had originally thought of dropping a lambroginni 12cylr engine in the back of a delorean body i found, but i love the front of the aston vantage, and i know where there is a souped 6 in a sc300 that was originally in asupra. I know if i were to build such a car, i would cut the quarters and add porsche 930 air ports, and something diffrent with the back, I like the idea of a top have a local guy who has a slr automatic hard top, and know where there is an original set of countach 5000 rims. how did you plan your top, did you use a mold? just curious...then there is the question about lambo doors or other opening. i want my car to look like an aston roadster with custom much like the black one on lincah, i know i could build such a car for under 30,000. who can afford to pay 90,000. for one...im not sure i would if i had the money. i paid less for my home. Im asking because i love your car. and although my car would be radically diffrent than yours, i would love any tips you can give, thanks

Haven't had a lot of reasons to come back and visit children who like to whine about what I did. The 440 was PFA'd (pulled from air).
I've kept the car all these years and have enjoyed it very much. Is that what cars are all about? At least I didn't put a lift kit on it and bigass mud tires and a get 'er done sticker on the windshield.

I remember seeing this car a few years ago, back before I had an account on here. I've always thought this one of the coolest cars ever. It's so unique and it looks better than the SC430 does.
I'm glad you kept the car. It's very unique and it looks amazing.

thanks for the comments. I guess I need to get rid of it one of these days, so I can do another project. I've been working on a 67 shelby GT500 for years now. Hopefully will be finished with it by this time next year. Need to sell the supra to pay for the restoration of the Shelby
