Kids are great.....

I will warn you --- if you think they'll automatically like what you do (cars).... well I hope that works out for you!

My son LOVES cars - as long as they're will in excess of $300,000 but doesn't know a nut from a bolt....

My daughter would spend all day in the boat engine room or in the shop - didn't matter.

LOL

I’d be surprised if she likes what I like lol! But she’ll know how to change a tire! She’s been pretty easy thus far....it’s only been a week lol!

Back to diapers!

Aj is adorable! Can’t wait to meet her. She’s going to be a lot of fun.

Congratulation's on the new baby John. The car is looking great.

We Have Progress!

Yeah....the car is going to be nuts. There's a lot more to see there than primer.

Thank You, Jim has definitely gone the extra mile on the gaps. The Car will come out better than I ever expected for sure.

All Joking aside, Jim has been crushing it above and beyond expectations! installed a the cage, smoothed the firewall, subframe connectors, fit the Fesler Flushmount glass, extended the A-pillars, and Fenders to clean up the gap where the trim would normally fill.

NOT TO MENTION THE BADASS PAINTJOB!!!!

Ill shutup now.

Nice! Is that a really dark gray, or a black with a lot of metallic?

Either way, looks great, congrats.

Daniel

It’s a really dark gray. It looks black when it’s not in direct light!

Man, Jim does some nice work! :king:

JD

I like that color and the crisp body lines down the side. Sweet!

Well Lat-G its been a while, My second child came into the world last December and 2 days after we got home from the hospital the Camaro showed up. I haven't made too much progress with COVID and having two kiddos under 2. Here are some pics.

Love how they ended the A-pillar. That’s probably one of the best fitting flush mount glass swaps I’ve seen.

Thank You Sir! We’ll get there, at the rate I’m going I’ll have it finished when he gets his license.

Jim really killed the metal work on the flushmount. We spent a lot of time digging up how other people had done them to find what we liked. I’m very happy with the outcome.

Very nice! Good luck with the kiddos and the car, John.
