Interesting. I am not at all up to speed on much of anything(with needed mods) outside the F bodies. Even then it's pretty limited to just the early second gens like mine.

Have you thought about making a career out of working with these cars? At 18 years old you seem to have a pretty good grasp on the paint, bodywork and mechanical aspect. Are you in school now? Or is this just a hobby for you? (if you can have a career that will allow you to let this stay a hobby that is even better)

I would absolutely love to make a career working on pro-touring style cars. I've done pretty much everything, but I could really use some welding classes. I'm not even out of high school yet.

Well you are off to a great start. Maybe there is a good shop or builder near you that you can get into and really get a chance to see if that is something you want to do for a living.
Like I said, off to a great start. But school is THE important part first.

The car looks great!
