Thanks everyone! It means a lot to hear that you guys like the car. I've been working on it for over 6 years now, and I'm still trying to wrap my mind around the fact that I'm (mostly, lol) done.

Sorry about the delay in photos, but security was tight. The guards took the "no photos except by Press" quite literally. I almost got Mike Norris' camera confiscated when I was taking pictures of my own car!

Many of you remember my first tentative technical questions, and then some of my fabrication photos, and my mistakes and corrections. It's been an incredible learning experience, and it has taken way way too much time (and money).

Most who saw it, liked it. People asked me if it was a Ford, or a Duster, or why I put such wide wheels on a drag car, or if I knew that one edge of trim was out of alignment (I did, thanks).

All in all, the best part of the show was renewing old aquaintances, and starting new ones. It's always cool to talk cars with others who care about them as much as me.

But anyway, now that the wraps are off, I can post more photos of the car. JohnU has tons of quality stuff he's taken over the past several years, and I have some stuff too.

thanks again!!!
