All that work is pretty amazing. Interior looks very nice.

No sidepipes though .

I like and appreciate the work that was put into that car, but I personally do not like it. Something about it just doesn't peak my interests.

I prefer this one...
The body on the one with all the body work done is too short and the rear end looks different. That is what i did not like about it.
This one looks so much more sleak. Like a bullet it is.
