3rd: rear of car

 

4th: worst body damage (back into a light pole while watching a hot lil blonde girl i worked with in high school, makes me feel even worse about the dent that she still works there and is fat now)ou:

 

5th: front of car/ hood, before anyone asks, yes that an msd/b4b controlled 462 peeking outta the holes

 

6th: even the bacon companies show respect!

 

7th: dont worry junior, your next

 

8th: drivers side almost done

 

I'd make her pay for the repairs!

You really should offer it for sale in one piece even if it is full of rust...
