Yeah, that’s a basic first step conversion.

Here is one of yours that I did with 5 step processing using C2C and iPad photo editor and didn’t even take it to photoshop yet for clean up and hand drawing of lines plus colorization of details yet.

You can see that it now a decent base image to proceed with.

Holy moly that is so cool

I can't believe how cool that is.

That is an amazing effect on something familiar

Pretty much another wasted evening.

I had plans to come home from a 12 hour day, 4am. To 4 pm and change the ECU box on the fury and do a bunch of things around the yard I have. On a list.

I came home and layed on the couch and woke up in the dark with my office clothes on.

Ate dinner and now I am surfing fabo and didn't do a dang thing all evening.

That is good, my friend said her phone has a cartoon editor, it does but no where near as detailed as yours.

This is such a cool car to have saved.

When you first posted pics of it and said you were going to save it, I thought you were nuts because it's a 4 door.

I am looking at it differently now because I would love to have a 4 door car now.

I want either a 72/ 73 dart or a 70 to 75 valiant.

Good job on loving a car that deserves it and wouldn't be loved anywhere else.
 
With all the spelling correction earlier, makes me think of....Pilkunnussija

Bill, you should recognize that one.
 
Not sure which one of you a#@holes called the cops on me driving the Duster around town with no bumpers or plates on it!!!! Yep, they showed up last night after I made a few mild mannered test rides down the street trying get get the kick down set just right. Thankfully he is a car guy and loves Dusters, he said he was actually driving around trying figure out where the car lived because he saw the car and just wanted to see it, then he got a call about me driving around. When he pulls up he see the 2 Challengers, Durango, 2 Ram trucks sitting out front and knows he at the right place...lol. I told him..this is where the Mopars live. He said"I get it...you got to test adjustments out. Just dont get caught. If your gonna do some burnouts go outside of town, that's the counties problem then." YES SIR!!!

Better than everything you touch turns to crap, with the entire planet demanding you drop what you are doing and look after them...

Oh, Finnish, a nitpicker. No, my Finnish is extremely limited. I knew a few single words, can not form a sentence in Finnish. Except, I can say for example, hyvää yötä. which means good night. Or hyvää päivää which means good day, and not in the good bye meaning of it.

Thanks, but you were right, I was crazy, I’m still crazy for taking it on. But it’s the history of the car that makes it cool. At least to me.

So quick back story, a long time friend of mine ran into a sudden need for money, his now ex wife had drained his bank accounts and ran off with another dude. Well I tried offering to simply gift the guy the money, but he insisted he had to sell me something as he felt too guilty and prideful to take it for free. Anyway, this was his brothers car and given to him after it’d caught fire briefly back in 2000. My buddy never liked or wanted the car. Thing sat parked in clay dirt up to the doors, sunken in the ground for nearly 2 decades. Pulled it out in December 2017. At 5 above zero. Lots of pics in my build thread over at FBBO

Anyway, I talked to his brother, most of the dents are from the early 90s, him and his buddies would road race on this long, windy gravel road out in the country from town. They’d lean on each other, beat and bang.

This is another of those things I have struggled with in the English language. In Norway, Sweden, and I guess also Finland we say good morning maybe until 9 am. After that it is sort of a little rude to say good morning. Sometimes you might get a comment back if you say it, someone will say, "do you think I just got up", if you say it after 9 am. Like you are indicating they overslept or even worse, was lazy. After 9 it is good day, and it continues with good day maybe until 3pm. Then it becomes afternoon, for until like 6 or 7 pm, then it becomes evening, not night. And it is then evening until you go to bed, like 10-11 pm, then it is good night and you go get your tush under the comforter. And then it is night until the rooster announce the new morning.
Very different from here in the US.
Noon in Norwegian is "middag", which means "mid-day", in other words, if the day starts at 9 am, and last until 3 pm, 12 will be in the middle of that day. "Middag" also means dinner, because that was when people in the old days in Norway ate the only warm meal they had in a day.

Wow, that's a cool thread.

I don't know why I was thinking that is a C body, didn't even occur to me that it's a B body till I saw FBBO
