should have done this a long time ago

It's dirty and I have a lot of work yet to do to the car but it's with me now in Kansas. I hope I can find the time to work on it. Having it here was the first step of many. Next step is cleaning it up.

Way to go Trey! Look forward to some updates

Awesome. Has been pretty rust free for most of it's life?
Should be a fun project. And,....it's not a Camaro!

Well, yes but at the same time no. There's damage to the body and I'm a little worried about the rocker panels as I know there's some rust in the lower door jams were the B-pillar meets. I'm not worried though as the integrity of the car is fine ie rear subframe etc. Also, I'll use the car to teach myself how to do panel replacement. I imagine this car will never been done and I'm ok with that. Building, for me, is the most enjoyable part.

lol, I was mainly on that site when I did the first round of stuff in 09 and 10. You'll have to go there to view it all. I'm mainly only here now so I'll start with another thread here.

2009 Ducati Monster 1100s that I wish I had more time to ride. I really hope I can get over to Colorado some this summer and ride it. If not. I'll keep it running great and ride more when I finally move to a better place. A better place being one that has hills and turns and isn't flat and straight for miles on end like Kansas.

After sitting outside for 13 years, it's a welcome change. I just hope my Sierra doesn't get hit with any hail. I'll have to see what I can get away with in the garage. I've got more room than I thought but still not enough.

I am going to need tools which is fine but I don't have a great selection in town. Anyone have suggestions on places to get say a low jack that has a big landing pad and high lift? I could use some good jack stands too. I might build some of the wooden stands but I have to be able to get the Duc out too so wooden stands might not be a good idea.

Thanks everyone!

Trey, congrats. Now if you're not working on it, you can still visit it everyday. That's what I do, can't get enough

Very true! I hated that I did all that work only to then leave it again for three years now. Granted, that wasn't the plan but plans don't always work out obviously. I've got the battery charging now. Maybe I'll get it washed this weekend.

Very cool. If you enjoy building, it will not be work, but a passion for that car to look/handle great and to hit the roads and cruise!

Thanks, tone. That's how I look at it as well.
