Did you buy this car in Apopka? Everytime I look at the this thread your car reminds of a SR5 that was up for sale in Apopka.

Looking good... Do you do bodywork for a living or just good at it?

Yellow_Feva · **Posted:** Sat Aug 25, 2012 6:11 pm

I just do it for fun as a hobby.

There's a sense of accomplishment when you restore your own cars.
