Mario that absolutely amazing.

did I see correctly, are those inner fenders and rad support made from aluminium?

Great fab work!:thumbsup:

Nice Mario!! Troy is really knocking it out of the park!! :thumbsup:

Quit BS'ing your driving this car already!
Listen, My nephew isn't coming to SEMA this year and he's real good at spending my $$$!!! I don't need you ''BOUNCING'' ideas off of Troy:G-Dub:
Thanx Greg !
Mike don't egg Lance Armstrong on !:twak:
Thank you Jeff.
You never know with Troy I'll find out.
He always does Rick Thanx!:weld:

:innocent:

Knockin it out of the park big time brother-----continues to look more killer each time there's a new picture posted. What a completely amazing ride this already is and is gonna be! Greenbacks killer.

D

Just remember, crack kills. ha Looks fantastic...

It looks amazing Mario, Troy does beautiful fab work.

IMPRESSIVE Mario!!

:wow: Mario that is some impressive fab work there for sure. :hail:

It's the BBC that makes the engine compartment though. :D

:cheers:

word.




:D

Translated from the old english to the new english means, BBC=LS?

jk, Mike

She's gonna be a final five, looking sweet Mario!

Mario,

Don't unveil this badd boy without 'The Coach' doing the honors... :shakehead:

Skip I really like the new signature picture!!:hello:

lets start spraying some paint Mario:poke:

NO WAY --- There's 1000's of hours of metal work yet left to do!! Rule of law - Never spray just before attending SEMA. There's way too many changes and adds and do overs after being at that show.



:thumbsup: :G-Dub: :unibrow: :D

Danggggg! super cool factor going on with the design. Great sheet metal skills and metal finishing is top notch. So, like 15 min each side? :confused59: ... Lol actually I don't want to know.

Greg you are definitely right about leaving this quality of work in bare metal,seriosly it would be so hard to paint it.

Amazing fab work.

Wow - you hit the nail on the head there brother. I just hope I don't see something I want to buy. Kenny & I have been talking about his 62 Flat roof and I am seriously thinking about buying that so I don't change anything on my car after Sema.

What?!?!? Say it isn't so! :sieg: :bang: :hairpullout:

:waveflag:

Metal work is top notch, nicely done

Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:thumbsup:

As always guys thanks for the props ! Greg is right about SEMA but Troy and I are pretty much set on the direction of the car. A trip to SEMA can make you change direction in a hurry that's for sure! Just being on this board makes me crazy. You don't know how many times I've called Troy and asked him to make changes because I saw something on here. Changes at this time really can't happen we have a plan and we are staying the course. So paint WILL start at mid to late March. Troy Is going to have all the rough body work done before it comes to me . Then I can do my thing and get it back to him for all the final assembly. TIC TOC TIC TOC!!!!

That sounds like a plan!

Finishing up some details in the engine compartment and starting on the wheel wells.Then the dash!! I'm counting the days till it comes to me for paint!!

Mario that fab work is amazing,cant wait to see it painted now.:thumbsup:

really when are we going to go look at this car in person

X2...happy for ya Mario. :thumbsup:

Unbelievable. That is some incredible metal work.

^^You said it. Looks killer.

:y0!: :y0!: :y0!: :y0!:

What Marty said????

Love how it's turning out Mario --- and you know I love you buddy!


Hope like hell you can paint better than you TIG weld…



HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA




What color are you going with --- I'm old and have forgotten already! Somebody donating paint to you? Gawd only knows you donated enough of it to everyone else! It's payback time!

Payback time? speaking of which, I think the renderings showed Payback Black. :lol:

Oh, and about materials, I think there is some guy in Chicago or roundabout that area that always helps everyone. I'll see if I can dig up his contact info. I'm sure he'd love to be involved. :lol:

Hey you need paint?? Well you've got my number, I'll get you the good stuff???

Paint schmaint... :lol:

Let us not forget that ozone altering 'Supersize me!' BBC going in that amazing engine compartment.

:wow:

As always guys thanx for the props ! Greg trust me I learned my lesson!!! I can't even donate paint to my own car as crazy as that sounds. Everything that's going on my car will be paid for by me . PPG has been a great product for me and I can't blame them for cutting me off the program. I could never produce a complete finished product for them. The last deal I wound up paying everything out of my pocket (almost $3500.00) just to save myself from looking like a azzhole !! I wound up eating everything because the shop wasn't ''comfortable'' using PPG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WTF!!!!!!!!!!! Can you imagine ! And the shop knew I had everything ready to go. I was calling them to deliver it and that's when they tell me the above comment!! I still have the silver and orange on my shelf to remind myself never to do it again . Sorry for the rant but when I hear DONATION its like my SLOWLY I TURN MOMENT! :soapbox:
Back to my car. As I said before things are picking up a lot faster so updates will be more frequent.:D

HAHAHAHAHAHA ---- I WOKE THE SLEEPING GIANT!!!



My phone was going off constantly with the Text sound -- and Gwen is like "Who's that"?…. Oh -- just my little buddy Mario…. he's going crazy on me! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA



The car looks so awesome! Not long now and you'll be smoking tires on the mean streets of Chicago!

Uhhhh, no need to torture yourself like that Mario. You need to get rid of that stuff. It just brings back old memories. I'd gladly take it off of your hands. :y0!: :y0!:
