WORDS FROM THE OWNER
I'm Kevin Shanley I'm 20 years old, I live in Casper, WY. My passion for cars started when I was 17 because I've always thought 350z's looked good, so I went and got an 04 350z and just started building on it ever since. It has been a non stop project for two years trying to climb to the top.
When did you buy your 350Z?
I bought the car in March 2014
Who does most of the work on your car?
I've done all the work on my car except paint.
What made you choose this car over the competitive cars in it's class?
There was only 1 other Z in town and I loved the way they looked so I set my mind to get one.
Where do you see yourself with this car in the next couple years?
In the next couple years I'm hoping to get sponsored and hopefully one day make it to sema.
Did you achieve your Initial Goal with the car?
No because I am no where near being done with it.
What are your future plans for the car?
My future plans for my car is to make it into a sema quality car. Clean, pristine, and a mean Machine.
What/Who inspires your build?
I want to thank my friends and family because they have inspired me on my build.
What would you want your next project car to be?
My next project car will probably be a BMW M3
What is your favorite mod on your car?
My favorite mod on my car would have to be the air ride suspension, because cause you can raise or lower it at anytime!

My goal with the car was to make it stand out more than any other Z around, and make it into a show car.
