Update....
What a whirlwind of a week!!!!!!!!! Nothing like taking a car with 400 miles on it...and driving it 1,100 miles over two days on a mission.
I am happy to report that other than the leaky trans cooler line...it made it to Florida just fine.
The upholstry guy did a jam up job getting the interior trim done - including wrapping the fiberglass inserts I built for the rear 4th gen Trans Am seats...and many other minor details.
Also - the trans in the car is a used one I bought a few weeks ago local and put in to get the car there. The car was dropped yesterday at a trans shop in Lakeland that is totally going through it to make it new and ready to go - so that all the drivetrain in the vehicle will either be new or rebuilt and reliable.
We had a blast - and topped it off last Saturday with the all GM NPD show at Silver Springs.
I'm excited about seeing it again this Summer - and building into the giveaway November 10, 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for everybody that has supported this project- details to come as we go. We are working towards having it on the Power Tour 2012. However, I'm looking for an Overdrive Trans before that run. It will be good for everybody - as 11 mpg was not cool on the way down.
