If you guys haven't seen this car...

Here is what I hope my FC looks like when I'm done.

I think this car is still in California.

These pics were e-mailed to me. If you can't view them let me know. And someone PLEASE tell me if this wide body kit is custom or if I can buy it somewhere.

I figured my e-mail wouldn't let me link them. I'll fix it.

Ok. This is the dumbest **** I've ever seen. You can't edit a past reply after 5 minutes or so? That's dumb.

Wow, it looks like he kept the dual thermostats...

...You know you've been working on a 20B to long when you see an FC like that and that's the first thing you notice...

The guy is selling it for $35,000.

I also found that body kit on ebay for like $500. I might have to consider that. Though it's one of the very last things on my list. Again, I can only hope my FC looks that clean when I'm done.

Is that Chito Solomon's car? I've always thought it was a neat car.

That looks like Chitos to me as well.

What is the brand/type of body kit (wide fenders) that are on there?

That is Chito's car. It was at sevenstock 5. It bwas featured in suoer street. It is for sale still I believe. that is a tri-point wide bodykit with front and rear spoilers. He did the rhd conversion himself.
As far as I know, that is the first 20b swapped fc ever done.
