Ahhh, gosh, that's no good. Notches are about subtlety, and that guy misses the point.

Wow, that was painful to read through... I like that he fixed some of the issues but the car was the PERFECT sleeper! Now it looks like he ran it down to Autozone for the full car treatment. Shame to see someone royally fuck up one of the coolest cars built...

Doesn't bother me. It is his car and he is doing what he likes to it. If you don't like it maybe you should build your own Fox 500 to your specifications.

Hate the paint and wheels. I see that he fixed some of the cars problems but then he made some problems at the same time.

I think the attitude may be a symptom of the bashing. Maybe not, I don't hang out on that site.

I like the smaller things he has corrected but not a fan to all the flash stuff. I wish I was in the market for a car like this when you had to sell it.

The paint job and the chome cam covers are the only things I don't like. I do like that he's taking the little things to a higher level, but as it was said in that thread, it looks like an 80s 10.5 Outlaw car. Line it up next to Varley's gold fox from Street Outlaws now and they'd look great together on the cover of a magazine in the 80's.

I was expecting a lot worse from the comments. Not my thing, but it isn't horrible.

The blower polish/black treatment is neat. And I'm not a big fan of chrome or polish.

Phuckin paint/body/detail/show guy though. All that work and they didn't take the extra 2hrs to pull the motor out and make everything real nice? and no mini tubs?!

I'm on the same page as most here. Nicely done updates....except the paint. While it is nice and all, it looks very dated. I also prefer the original wheels. All subjective stuff.
