Default I’m back

Hi guys. I’m back after a year absence. Don’t know why I haven’t checked in lately but I want to let you know that I finally finished my 20 year project, the “Mitchell Brothers ZR 28 Camaro”. We’ve shown it at Puyallup Good Guys in the last couple years and did well but this year we went to Reno for Hot August Nights where we had success. We won “HOME BUILDER OF THE YEAR”. We had a great experience but not sure I’m willing to do it again. It’s very stressful and a lot of hard work.

Thank you for viewing and for the compliments. I’ve been a member of this organization for quite some time and have learned a lot from you guys. I also got a lot of good ideas off of this site that I’ve incorporated in my build. I will definitely keep in contact in the future. Car guys are the best! The pictures I am showing are from the Salem Roadster Show last May.

Perry,

What are your impressions of the LT5 if you’ve had time to get ample seat time?
