Very nice Albert, like what you're doing with the motor also. :thumbsup:

Lovin' everything about this build Albert!! Matching Pontiac blue valve covers? :unibrow:

Thanks guys....
Scott picked up the car and took a couple of quick pic's to show me.... I'm really pleased with the decision to do the gray firewall and matching sub-frame as it ties in well with the Carbon Composite cowl and inner wheel wells....

Just a quick update,,, I'm back from LS Fest and dropped by Scott's prior to the event to pickup the Formula when I took these pic's...
Scott has been working on the 53 Caddy, the 70 Sleeping Beauty, and now his 66 Chevelle... Top this all off with helping his son Brandon with the 71 Jevlan and a couple of projects I'm steering his way and he's going to be a very busy guy over the coming months....

The car is coming along very nicely and we hope to finish it off over the next few weeks all things equal....

I wanted to challenge Scott to build an attractive yet understated 70 TA Pro-touring build that the average guy could afford.... The car will utilize a stock sub-frame with readily available Ride Tech suspension components and Wilwood brakes.... We will attempt to make some of the hard choices and balance where money is spent and cut as closely as possible to build a very good road map for others that may be considering doing a early second gen....

Of course there will be a certain basis when it comes to Carbon panels,,, but hey that's what you get when I'm financing the build and it's my rules right,,, that is unless someone else wants to step up and purchase the build as we go along LOL...
Anyways without further a due,,, Project Sleeping beauty

Our definition of "what an average guy can afford" is WAY different! Beautiful car!
