I have not yet commented on this, but i have to say that this is by far one of the neatest projects i have seen go together. I can't wait to see the end results of this build---as i am sure you cant wait for it to be done either. Keep up the great work you guys are putting into it.

Lookin really good big D. That seat might be a little too big for me though Think I'd wrap that hole motor in a blanket before I'd have a "nitrous thermel event" ruin that beautiful tin work!

85-Thank you very much. It is at the point I am getting excited about it being done too. Jerry-I am doubtful that it will be ready for ETI, but hopefully opening day. John-We can put a couple phone books beside you to keep you in the seat.

Thanks KatFysh. Of course I thought we'd be done by now, but lots of life has gotten in the way. Plus, I am a realist when it comes to this stuff. It always takes a lot longer and costs a lot more than expected. If I had it at a dedicated shop I would be furious, but since it's just 2 guys hacking away part time I am very pleased. It never helps that we have done lots of "while we're at it" things too. In hindsight, if I had suspected how deep we were going to get into this thing I would have just bought something like a Jegster strut front end kit. Oh well, live and learn.

Hung the nose back on it temporarily today. Jeff picked up the header flanges so he will be ready when the car gets there. Patrick has a couple more little things he wants to address, and then it goes on to have the headers built. Underhood: Patrick's 6 y/o boy William: Front shot: Side shot: Almost looks like a race car again. Life is good.

Really shaping up nice Dennis. Will it be ready for the fall MATS? They are breaking ground on my new garage / shop tomorrow. Should be done by mid June. My rides are still sitting in Phoenix.
