So what are the plans for the body? What year are you going with? I like your adjustment hole set up on the frame jig looks like a style I may have to copy for one I am starting to build. Any other shots of the table it self?

Most of the heavy work is done. I'll hang the body and nose so I can make the core support.

Nice work. Are you using a turbo 350 or 400 with the gear vendors? Why did you pick the Gear Vendors?

Well I started putting the body on the frame. I know what most of you guys are thinking what the hell is taking so long. It is a real pain in the ass to get your own show and web site built way more than I ever thought it would be. Any way the body is in place and it looks crazy!





That engine set back isn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I didn’t have to cut out the whole firewall.



I’ll put the bed on when I get it off of the table. It will be a lot easier.

I was a little worried about the shifter. I was already thinking RAG TOP like the old V-DUBS but NO !! It fit.

Looks good Lou, How the heck do you shift? Can we get a video of you shifting that thing?

Guys sorry that I haven’t posted any updates lately I’ve been working with my internet guy on my web site. Garageinsider.com is up and running. We hope to have video in 3 to 6 months. This is my new shop I started moving in on Monday so it’s game on.
