Hey thanks guys.

The car is all done. We were invited to bring the car down to SEMA to appear in the Car Crazy booth and get interviewed by Barry Meguiar. The Meguiar's folks were an amazing group of people and took care of the car as if it were their own. I was impressed to say the least. Barry was such a class act and a true ambassador for the sport- no doubt. We were picked by Goodguys to participate in their Gold Award. Being up against stuff from Ring Bros, Kindig, DSE, Alloway etc etc, we knew it wasn't gonna happen- but what an honor to be chosen. Lenie's bad ass 'Bird got one too! Our cars can't compete with that kind of firepower, but the decal is a badge of honor for me. This truly was a nirvana experience for a car guy.

Here are the pics from the trip as well as a few detail shots. We took the car up and down the strip a few times as well as an evening cruise after SEMA ignited was winding down. The torque this thing makes is unreal. Dyno numbers are neat, but torque makes the nether parts tingle when unleashed. The Richmond is super tight and shifts with that perfect "chunk chunk" that feels right. 5 miles on the odo so far- many more to come.

A quick clean up at the hotel before the drop off.

Congrats on all of the honors,This is one of the best looking builds ever,stance,color,everything is perfect:king:

Didn't realize that was your car there. Looked at it several times last week.

Beautiful car!

What Mirror are you using?

The base wade made by a guy at CMC machining up in redding CA. The stem and mirror head are from Sun Specs in AZ.

Awesome. I also looked at it 3 or 4 times and I didn't realize this was your car. Engine bay looks great.

Congrats on the interview and being selected to participate. That's cool!

Did you end up selling this car? Seems like it was sold weeks after finishing it.

I did sell it. A guy saw it at SEMA and made me an offer I couldn't turn down. It had 7 miles on it. I miss it.

I figured as much, I knew it had to be a good deal. You made an amazing car, I am currently working on my 66 chevelle. I have all your videos saved as favorites on youtube of the chevelle. I found those prior to finding this thread, great job with the build.

Looks great! Ive got to admit, Im a little fond of your suspension. The car is a nice build for sure.
