Alicia
From ashy to classy
Cb7tuner family, I would like you all to meet my wife and my work in progress. Alicia. I adopted Alicia from her caretakers at the time. Litttle did I know, she was on her way to needing a heart transplant. She was over heating, had parts on her that were of the wrong year of birth and didnt quite fit her properly or look right on her. She had no radio to play cruising music with, or much of an interior at all of that matter. After running her vin number courtesy of the website crazymikey provided in the OT section, I discovered Alicia has had a very rough past full of neglect and emptiness. She got kidnaped and twice. Once via car thieves which resulted in her ending up in car prison, the impound lot. After being sold at auction andsent to other foster parents multiple times and ended up being kidnapped again, but this time by the police and once again impounded. After being sold again at auction she went through multiple parents and ended up dumped at the car grave yard twice and both times saved via car re sale through the yard. But now, she is in my hands and being greatly taken care of. With a fresh heart transplant and all of her interior put back together and having matching year parts on her as well as new shoes, she is well on her way to being something special and she is something truely special to me. Alicia has come a long way and is coming even longer and harder.
MUCH SHOUT OUTS AND BIG UPS TO MY HOMIE BLAKE AKA Dark_Accord Without him Alicia would probably be at her final resting place right about now. Thanks again man

With no further adue here are the pics starting off with humble beginnings. June 2011 the night i bought her and the same night I joined the site
Immediately I replaced the trunk and front bumper to where they were the correct year along with redand clear tails along with painting the moldings black and eventually touching up the rear bumper
Wagon trunk compartment and interior shot with new deck and beer tap shift knob
And the way she currently sits
Prior to 90/91 grill
Giving her a bath
After giving her a bath (please excuse lack of bumper lights have yet to screw them in)
Cleaned wheels and shined tires are happy wheels and tires <3
Thank you all for looking and stay tuned for updates on this as its far from finished
