Kurt's website is www.kurturbanperformance.com. Ask him.

His shop is in the process of moving from Michigan to North Carolina.

He still is, the project is just on hiatus while he moves and gets his shop set back up.
Kurt didn't actually own the green Nova it was owned by Wheel to Wheel and when Jeff (the owner) died the shop went out of business, and it was sold as part of the bankruptcy.

I can't find the build on his site anymore...I hope he updates his build page when he is finished with the move.
