SPL-311 19187 "Reidster"

Post by GenuineAlexReid »

Hey folks! Good to talk to you all again, here's the infamous Reidster going up against my friend's 1970 Corvette in the latest episode of my web series! Hoping to get this car fixed up a little more, but this will be the last time in a while that I'll be able to take it out and thrash it, I plan to scrape off that awful surface rust and get some clear coat on it, change the wheels and tires, and generally continue to make it nicer.

Been watching your show since before I bought my Roadster. Love it, keep up the good work. What's next for Reidster?

Next the Reidster is probably going to be stripped of its paint and clear coated to look like a hot rod, right after I remove more surface rust. Eventually I'd like to put in a 5 speed and maybe even stroke it to 2L! Some better wheels and tires would be nice too, but all these things require money, haha.
