Rybar 09-28-2011 04:37 PM

Pretty sick build Albert, Scott you guys sure can build them quick. :thumbsup:

tazzz2_ca 09-29-2011 03:41 PM

As Scott has indicated the progress is coming along great!!! (big thanks/shout out to Scott and all the people making this coome together.....)

Thought I'd share a little eye Candy as well,,,, we made some subtle changes to take care of mechanical monitoring needs and in the process created a custom look......

The guages are a custom set of Auto Meter internals, however they look stock for the most part... The oil temp, fuel pressure, and Tach are all Auto Meter pieces fit into the stock housings with the faces re-printed....

Scott's been in high gear all weekend,,, the thrash is on!!!!!!!!!!!

66SuperSport 10-16-2011 08:04 AM

That's a pretty impressive stack of rubber. Can't wait to see this one done. The early Formulas are one of my favorite Pontiacs.

tazzz2_ca 10-16-2011 08:06 AM

Thanks Chris I'm stoked buddy,,,, Formulas hold a special place for me too.

coolwelder62 10-16-2011 04:54 PM

The team Albert is refuring to are my 2 son's Kevin,and Brandon.They have both been helping me out w/the build.My wife Teresa has running around picking up part's so I can stay working.And long time friend Ken Vervnck will be helping w/the wiring on the car this week.During the week I am a 1 man show.After Kevin get's done at his full time job and Bandon get's out of of high school then 2 hour's at a part time job after school they come out and help me.Let me say this Albert is a peach of a guy to work for.I hope he want's more car built just in a lttle longer time frame.:lol:
