It's cheasy in real life.... the interior is done really poorly though....

The Exterior paint job is pretty nice, but just doesn't do it for me at all.... there were other tCs at the show that were done up so much more cleanly....

Here's a pic of the interior that I took.... not well done at all.

yeah see i like the look of it from the outside but yeah the inside looks like crap, i mean come on the tv on top of the dash with the gauges, i would look better if he had the gauges on the side and that tv gone. and come on how many speakers do u need to listen to music ____ all i have is the two tweeters four speakers and two subs and my car bumps enuff to get everyones attention lol but like i said i like the out side look and that is it.

What struck me when I saw it was the engine bay looked all beat up. Parts were all discolored from the turbo heat etc. It didn't draw my interest long enough for me to look at the interior.

why put a monitor like that in a box that takes up the whole dash? Maybe it's not really a monitor, hmmm. My wife has a tv that's kind of that shape. lol....

but you gotta give props, is your ride in the magazine?

If I have anything to say about it, they will! I'm going to do my best to get set up enough by this summer to have a photoshoot worthy ride....

I know for certain no other tC will have all the things I've got in store.... Just need a little time and a lot of money/hookups... but, it's coming along nicely.

But, it's still a half-pipe dream right now....

Quality>Quantity, but you have to have some quanititative equmulation of the right parts and a clean execution. This car looks like it started on the right path, but took a left turn IMO. Good job on the getting in the mag though, its not easy to get on the cover of any mag.

That guy had some great hookups.... lots of connections... seems to be the key to covers and such... boyd connington made/did the fuel door cover, which I loved.... the dude said it'd cost about a grand to have it done...



LOL - TYC Tails....
