build story(beginning to present): Bought the truck of a guy with intentions of just
doing a couple things and cruising it... that of course changed. started with the
suspension, installing new parts and fixing items that needed to be adressed. then
onto the body bods which took the longest, alot of hours went into shaping the body
the way i wanted, hand molded corners, shaved everything, and as you can see the bed
modifications. i already knew what i wanted out of the interior so that was the easy
part, and the rest is history. thats pretty much it, had fun with the build and
greatly appreciate everyone who had a hand in it.

Make/Model: 2008 Chevy Impala
Club: Low Xpectations
build story(beginning to present): Bought the car straight from a dealership in 2009
and after driving the car for a 1,000 miles decided to make the car better. It
started out with just doing rims and tint. Then one day I was sitting at a buddies
house and we decided it would be cool to bag something this new, so we did. We also
thought it would be awesome to do because not many people out there have a 2008
bagged Impala. Ever since then I have just been trying to do things every year.

Give a story from beginning to present of the build of the vehicle:
I got the truck in 1995, I redid the truck eight times. When I started building the truck they didn't make anything for it, everything had to be custom made. with it being a six lug, I didn't have a good selection of wheels, especially any that would tuck. My truck got shot for three full layouts,
it made cover of Tailgate and a lay out. Truckin Mag. also shot it in 2003.
2004 I was talked into redoing it, I regretted that the whole time. It went to six shops, every shop told me they could do it. Well the only shop that proved there self was "Low Budget Customs". They finished the bodydrop
and did the full sheet metal interior. Then I decided to be the first mistu done on twenty two's, and that was a task in its self. "Low Budget Customs"
rebuilt my front suspension and i had rear-end shortened four inches. I also
had it swapped over to a five lug. I work at a body shop.
"Perdues Paint and Body". So I did most of the custom body work, and I
also painted it, with the help of Mike Prince at "Pete's Crazy Paint".

Give a story from beginning to present of the build of the vehicle:
In October of 2001, I moved home from Kansas. Three after arriving, my 1991 honda accord was stolen from my apartment complex parking lot. After several months of fighting with the insurance company (Don’t let a geico fool you into wasting 15 minutes of your life), I was given enough money to purchase the civic. In those four months, I acquired a hood, 18 inch ADR racing wheels, 18 inch tires, coil over springs, catback exhaust, and cold air intake. The day I bought the car, all items were installed. A week later, I was hit by a drunk driver. The insurance paid out enough to buy a full body kit and a paint job. A week before going to the paint shop, a friend borrowed the car, remote started it while in gear, and smashed it into a 2002 subaru outback. After fixing the damage, it finally made it to the paint booth. Two weeks later, went to NOPI and took first in its class. The car has been redone five times since and will probably never have any other major changes.
