I just finished my West Coast Resurrection (MAXVELO)=MAXIMUM VELICITY "MAX" just in time to enter it in the New Mexico Supernationals (car show). Ther were over 200 cars there and I took 2nd in my class. I also received best paint award. This is the first car show Ive entered MAX in since its resurrection. Not Bad. Ill have to post some new pics in my Gallery so you all can see the transformation. I think some of you may like it (SOME WONT) as its not the traditional "West Coast" style but a little more traditional "shelby" style. It will impress some here and depress others. I dont think Vern cares for the modifications I did on the Rollbar and fuel filler but I love it! Ill post pictuers A.S.A.P.
Gary

BTW I meant to put shelby in lower case!

Car looks great! Did you see the West Coast on the cover of the Summit catalog and the 'centerfold'?

SURE DID, I MADE MY COMMENTS ABOUT HIM NOT GIVING ANY CREDIT OR NOT MENTIONING WEST COAST OR VERN. HE MADE IT SOUND LIKE HE MADE IT FROM SCRATCH! It is a beauty but the rollbar and the top are questionable, and the wheels are bling bling. Dont get me wrong they are nice wheels, they just look out of place on a cobra.

Not my style either but I completely agree, very nice car. Remember that the article was not written by him and who knows what he told the author. I was once interviewed and everything came out totally different then was intended due to editing. So you never know! I spoke to the guy the other day. Very nice and had no idea that we all existed! He does now!

Rdorman, I think I remember reading a post from yesterday about you talking to the guy about the summit car info. I guess its kinda like the News stations, inaccurate!

Thanks Trularin, I agree!
