Yikes. Apparently some wastes of food, water, and oxygen had stolen it and he bought it as a theft recovery. Apparently the thieves sprayed it black to hide it from the cops. Okay, I think I'm going to stop right here before I start saying what I think needs to happen to the thieves (they mostly involve serrated objects).

Nate knows what I mean. Camden is usually stop #1 for lifted cars going across the Delaware (Chester and Philly usually being the points of origin).

I would think that "Restoring an 07 [anything]" is an oxymoron, but apparently I'm wrong!  This car will be awesome, and I think it'd be even better if he dropped a nice 4.6 or something in it.  Either way, I'm likin it!

that's a hell of a project for such a new car.  it will be pretty badass for the amount of money that he's going to have into it.

Not worth it in my opinion. Maybe to resell and make money, because a nice cleaning and body work is basically all it needs, too much money involved for a car that everyone has. Not my style.

Wow, That's funky...
It's a cool read though, It's coming along pretty good!

His stepfather has a nice big garage, And knows about bodywork and such.
And they have the tools + room to paint it themselves.

As for the parts, Theres a bunch of forum members offering to send him all the needed parts for the cost of shipping. :hick:
And they encouraged him to set up a paypal donation thing for the cost of paints and such.
