Another California GT on the road.
It has actually been on the road for 3 months now. My main excuse for posting it is to show the static cling stripes I got from John Schnieder. John is a great guy and I highly recommend him.

I wanted to attach 5 photos [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] Not wanting to slow everyone down,,I attached 2 [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Looks great! That rear-view pic makes me glad I'm going with Gulf flares. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Good that you rubbed it out...the paint was the only thing that didn't look perfect on the CAVs I've seen.

It looks like it has the rear 1075 flares. Does it?

Nathan, you got mail again!

Bill, yes it is the wide (1075 rears). I never cared much for the regular rears [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] I like looking at the side mirrors and see nothing but the BUTT of the car [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Another California GT on the road.
Good lord man. The car is beautiful. My wife has always said black is the only color for a GT. I almost had her talked into dark red or dk blue and now she's more set than ever that it just HAS TO BE BLACK. Well it is pretty and I'm glad the stripes worked out for you.

Re: Another California GT on the road.
Nathan,

Since we are not having any luck on the e-mail, I will post here what I was trying to send. Mike Coats E-mail is coatesm@telus.net

Mike is in Canada and his work is great (Lynn Larsen put me in touch with him). His prices are better than all the "others" I have talked to. The quality of the work is great as well.

Jon,
It is a GTD 40,wheels are compumotive, they looked good 6 years ago when I bought them [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] today they don't look as good to me [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] (I like the BRMs)

John,
Your work is great and I thank Mark Clapp for giving me your info. Listen to your wife,,girls have better taste than we do [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Although, Arizona sun is somthing else [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

Now that you have the beast rubbed out and the stripes added I will have to drive over and take some new pictures. It looks great.
