Just took mine for a cruise around the block about 2 hours ago. First drive in 16 months. A few more tweaks and she'll be ready. How's that for a friggin' candidate?

:beavis:

I've built two or three complete cars since these builds started.... :rolleyes:

Great choice Ron! If I had your money my car would be there also for paint.
I don't know Dick other than talking with him a few times at events but with all the board (Steves, Matts, Greggs, Patch and others)cars that have came out of there it is money well spent. You will be driving in no time. Congrats

Great news Ron. I've been to California twice and both time I made it over to BOS too bad this time I'll have to live vicariously through your pictures . So take some good one!!! :woot: :woot:

About time you got it over there.:thumbsup:

updates needed. :bitchslap:

Yeah what ^^^he^^^ said:poke:

Mini update...

Underhood wiring pretty much complete. Rear wiring 70% there, dash is still in the works. Down bars painted and installed, and the coolers are mounted.

Still have oiling, hydraulic and PS to finish off.

Pics tamale :D

No pressure Ron.

Sometimes things take a lot longer than one wants...

Im gonna sick Jerry on you Skip! :smiley_smack:

You can see the light now Ron. Looking good bro.

Very Nice!

Hey another Sasquatch sighting! :hello:

Posting Marty style :peepwall: ...actually this is the only other one I have. I gotta get Matt or Gregg (CP guest photographer) to take the camera away from Dick :lol:

It's a Wegner Greg. Thx for the props!

Looks like someone (me) dragged the lower valance loading the car up for a tow! :doh:

There's my (mod) enforcer! You can put Sieggy on the list, or we can let Gae handle him :D: :cheers:

Yep. Track cars are so much simpler. :cheers: Bro

Thx Marcus! Your turn :rules:

Beat me to it Rick! :lol:

:hello: Eric :)

Thanks Jeff. I really wouldn't have done it if I couldn't reinforce them underneath/behind the firewall. I haven't tested the tortional ridigity but hope it helps.

You know I'm just ribbin' ya Ron. Lots of thought and quality work has gone into that car and she'll be sweet looking when she's done. I can already picture you cruising the windy coastal roads in the summer with the tunes and AC blazing. Hold that thought as you move forward and the wait wont seem so bad. :thumbsup:

Course Bro. You know you and I are in tune...except no AC and tunes blasting on the way to the track for a couple years before she retires as a cruiser.

At least he has an excuse.....You on the other hand.

Me likey Ron... Great to see things moving forward again. Feels good doesn't it.

Lookin Good Ron, Congrats on the forward progress :thumbsup:

:willy: It doesn't look like I'll finish mine first after all :willy:

:cheers:

Thanks Ron,

Look forward to the next update.

Almost there ...... the real R in Socal. :sieg:

Nice... the battle is back in session. :D

Was there ever a question?

:lol:

Wow, I've been gone for a week and it looks like I missed a bunch. The car looks incredible. I bet your really really happy.

Someone actually posted a progress shot
 

and the thread is trending like Kim K baby news on twitter. 4 pages...Wow!

Seriously, Congrats on your project finally moving forward. We needed some one to break to ice and show a car can actually be built.

That is the fun part of this forum. Sorta answers Payton's question too :hello:

So true Jeff! Thanks fellas :cheers:

Man that hurt :twak: Where's J-Dog?

Thanks Marty! I know you don't mind a little poke :D

:headspin: Can you keep this picture a secret

^ just between you n me Marty.
