Glad to see you listing on Lateral-G. Keep putting some of your projects on here. You've got plenty to share.
I had the opportunity to visit your shop on the "garage tour" a couple months ago on a Saturday. Thanks for opening up your shop for the tour!! You have lots of very nice finished and in process there.

I've recently listed a ChevyII project under the Project Updates section here on Lateral-G. Title is "62ChevyII On Target"

Will have to look you up a the cruise nights this spring/summer.

This car also won first place at a car show this past weekend in New York. And for anyone that was wondering the engine bay cover that wraps around is all aluminium.

We saw this car at Sema last year. I took many pics for my kid who is also building a T/A. Car was awesome, very nice details that took a little to find.
