Wow, how cool. I didn't realize you still had this and for some reason thought you sold it.
Love the curved seat belt crossbar in the roll cage. Need to do that to mine.

No, still have it .. not going to give up , it should make noise soon. List of parts is pretty slim now. but, seems that I have to place an order a day for things I've forgotten.

Progress is a good thing. We are all waiting to see the end result.

When I started the build a decade ago , that was the idea and still is ..but, this engine probably not up to the task. ..get it running, , maybe put together a different combo that could survive.

So, it's got "Nawse" !  Love it. I like to do something humorous on my non-stock stuff, too... Racecar had the "regular burnouts" emissions sticker on its left apron. Tailgate of my GMC 454 Dually has - the only nameplate on the thing - a badge from a Saab that says "16 valve".
