Just amazing.The atention to detail is Awesome.

Al you better be careful. Your gonna find yourself in business doing this for others. LOL!! Absolutely stunning!! :trophy-1302: :trophy-1302:

You don't suppose I could just drop off a Coyote motor and pick in up in three months, do you?

A True Blessing
 

Al,

What Nathan and your sons have done with this build is amazing and the accolades given are well deserved!

As a father of college age kids I think there is a more impressive, more important manifestation in this build. You, Al should be so proud that you have raised the boys (not sure how many children you have) to be so grounded, patient and thankful for what they have and what they can accomplish. In a time of instant gratification, entitlement and "buying" the best, video games etc... your sons are taking the road less travelled in this generation. This is a huge complement to you and your family. Rare is the teenager or twenty something that will take the time, dedication and focus (and the work done requires a lot of each!) to accomplish such an amazing goal and product, one small step at a time.

You should be proud and the boys should be also. Your family exemplifies what has made this country great and seeing this continues to reinforce the good that is out there.

Sincerely
Peter

Peter I am couldn't agree with you more. I am saving the email notification and showing it to my daughters.

Any update from the project!!

Amazing attention to detail in all aspects. Very nice.

Thanks guys for the props!

Matt that is a beautiful motor as is, I can only imagine with a little attention to detail it would make a huge statement.

Wow Guys, thanks for the kinds words! Peter, we have four children, Nathan 21, Justin 20, Seth 17 and Faith 11. Plus we just acquired another Justin from our church that is staying with us. We are putting him the the Moreno boot-camp. Makes thing a little interesting when you call out for Justin, LOL. The two oldest are now in college and the other two are still being home school.

Ask and you shall receive

Just received all new replacement glass from Optic Armor. This is really neat stuff as its 50% lighter than OEM and 250% stronger. I didn't realize that this is the same stuff Ring Brothers use on some of their build. The other benefit is that your losing the weight from the top lowering the center of gravity.

The boys have been working hard at getting rid of as much weight as possible. The goal is now 500 lbs which will bring the car into the 3,300 lbs range with 650 HP should make for a fun ride.

They were cutting out the bath tub in the trunk this last weekend to create a flat floor.

Here where the interior is at this moment. All the wiring is being rerouted inside.

The neatest part for me is that they have never done any of this before, it's all completely self taught!
