hey, im not sure if youg ot my email or what. anyways ill post what i sent to you here

i was thinking that whenever you come over during the 4th of july weekend, prior to that ill buy a stock zip and ill leave it that way until you get here. make it a project to go from wimpin to pimpin

i should have my digi cam by then so we can post updates on the project as we finish things up, but bring yours just incase. on this car i want to go all out on it... chassis tab lowering, custom wheels, exhaust, maybe a blower on the hood if its a muscle car(maybe), tri layman's cell, rare earth magnet, maybe double steering springs, new antenna, upgrade the controller to a longer antenna, make a full body kit, possibly LED headlights/taillights or a glow from below, pinstriping, detailing, racing stripes, and ill try and pick up some kind of paper to make decals for it on the computer

what do you think of this? if we need anything, there is a kmart and radioshack within walking distance that always have everything in stock(noone goes to kamrt, walmart is down the street

), a walmart a bit further away, a walgreens for cheap clones(not sure, havent been in there but heard they have them), and yet another radioshack by the walmart... so i think we'll be set on supplies and stuff

i want to present the most badass car to this site, both in looks and performance. so what do you say?

i dont usually take a day off unless it's raining so im sure he wont mind me taking one on that weekend you come here, or ill just go in early and leave at like 10 or 11 possibly. can't wait

Sorry I didn't respond to the email. I don't check it very much. We'll do whatever you want. Tell me what wheels, etc. you want. I have a stock of extra wheels and stuff. I also have the decal sheets for the striping, etc. You may need to find an old credit card for the chassis lowering as I have almost used mine up. You can buy a really chep phone card for that. If we need to go somewhere to get something, distance is not a problem, we'll just hop in my truck and go. Keep in mind I will be down there on vacation with my wife, kids, and family so we will have to see about the schedule, but we will work something out.

alright cool, i have a few spare phone cards laying around, its just a matter of finding them

and about your wife and kids, send them to a mall

lol jk, but i gaurantee the would have a good time. we have like 2 that are close by, and one that is a bit further away. the lynhaven mall(closest to my house, about 10-15min depending ont raffic) has a merry go round in it incase your kids want to do that(ill go out on a limb and guess they are toddlers?) for wheels and stuff, do you think you could take a pic with one of every wheel style in the photo? i dont mind if you cant, but its hard for me to describe rims and i dont know of all the ones you have... any BBS style wheels?

ill probably pick up a few extra things at walmart by the time you come, like paint and a few of those dubs cars to pick out my own wheels as well. aside from some dremmel bits and the small nails you use for wheels and stuff, i have pretty much all the tools we need, my dad is a professional woodworker and the stuff in his shop is worth more than his truck

anyways, cant wait!!!

Here is a pic of some of the spare wheels I have. I also have some Muscle Machines wheels too, but they are still on the cars. I picked up a couple of them today that I might be able to do the Zip treatment too the bodies.

thanks, i just wish i could get in a tad closer

oh, those wheels are nice

bring them all hehehehe. just stick them ina plastic baggy (ziplock so it dont fall out

) and we can decide when we figure out which car we will mod. hehe. oh yeah, just my luck... today i got $20 in tips from the dog kennel for walking peoples' dogs! talk about good luck!!!

im going to buy a car tomorrow when i have a day off. i will probably end up buying a 27mhz car because i already have a 49, and we can race our cars and stuff when the mods are over
