Default Keep an eye on this SC....Not 56K Friendly

Hey yall,

Modified Magazine sent down Luke Munnell(munnellphotography.com) to shoot my SC for an upcoming feature. He was ultra-professional, and had some crazy rig set up on my roof to get rolling shots of the car, as well as all sorts of other crazy techniques. It looked like we were fliming a movie at certain points throughout the day. We did a bit of it in downtown philly as well as right by our shop, and pretty much blocked off any street we were on gangsta style

This car is not a show car, it is set up to go fast in a straight line. We are doing a few changes over the winter, mainly the shortblock, turbo, and cage. I would like to compete in the turbo street class, or something along those lines in the 07 season. I bought the car with a stock motor/trans this past june, and it took about 4months of nights/weekends to get it to this level. It was originally purchased form member Workaholic. Greg, hope you see this thread, she came up!

These are OUR pics, not his. None of them are the philly shots, or any of the really hot ones, as I obviously cant release them publicly till after the issue, which will hopefully be February. But, my roommate snapped these with his camera, and some of them are pretty cool:










And this one is for all you lurkers out there looking at the thread and not posting:

Not yet, it would be a smoke show more than anything around here since the streets are so cold. Spring time! Thanks!

Congrats Josh ride looks sick. Keep me posted when you have your Spring meet so I can come check out this beast maybe I'll drop mine off and let you tinker with the 1J and create another monster.

Thanks plex! I typically specialize in NA-T, but im sure if you let me lose on that 1J we could put together something of this caliber easily Going to be a lot of nice Sc's in the NE this spring!
