Yes pumpkin......you are pretty

When I got to work this morning.......Pumpkin was there.

Busy as we are I have forgotten all about the big show in Monterrey, so if Pumpkin is going to make a showing, it needs to be prettied up,  see, It's been a long rebuild, and it has been a few months since she went home.

A full face lift and new hips were given, then the bath of orange elixir took place, but with all our paint work, we let it rest for a few months to insure a good cure, then a final colorsand and polish to really make it shine.

The duck tail and trunk lid are carbon fiber, but we gave them a few coats of high viscosity clear to match the orange glow.

The 3.6 turbo that was the junk in the trunk, had to be replace with a stock one, few minor details are not worth the risk of injury during the long journey up north........But don't get mistaken, you don't want to meet this little pumpkin in a dark alley......it can turn into Halloween..........

Hey Pumpkin....

Though not fully grown to become the grand carriage of a fairy tail, the stroke of midnight has not turned its driver into a mouse, and you can say that a little bit of magic has transformed this light weight into a ride worthy of a Princess.

In the beginning of Axiom Motorsports, Mr W, brought in this little bright long hood, bright yes, but no glow....

Being a good friend of the Axiom family has its fringe benefits, so we stripped it down to bare metal, not much body work was needed being that it is a 1972, natural beauty was already  there.  We dressed it on A Jaguermeister Orange, and carbon fiber hood and deck lid.

We though it was a happy ending,....but noooo !!
Got itself a big pair of rubber shoes and now it need to come to the patch and get re-fitted.
Add two inches to the hips and bumpers, get rid of the fiberglass fenders and match the metal ones to the front bumper, then take another shot of Jaguermeister again......yep !!  still tastes the same, even after 4 years.

For now it sits quietly at UFO Motorsport awaiting for the magic wand that makes it come alive, and even though it looks so adorable........don't try to pet it.......it bites....
