I just did the renderings so manufactures could get a idea what there dealing with.
I also have been busy with my New old Gmc truck my dad handed down to me. (Lq9 swap,dyna tech long tubes, comp custom grind cam, Stock bed, new tires,etc....) Its a 2000 sierra 2500HD that is in great overall shape just going through it.

Now to the GTO, we are redoing the following: trunk floor, wheel tubs, firewall, drivers side floor, build bumper brackets, hard lines, AC system mounting,custom sheetmetal inner fenders, and just a lot of **** to get it to paint and interior.
I Still haven't even opened that DVD

Is that so your hair wont blow while your cruising down the blvd ? LOL

This thing looks like it'll be real nice. Cant wait to see it this year.
Pat was at the shop on Tuesday asking about you.
I told him you are building some top secret spacecraft and wont reveal any details.
Keep up the good work...

That is true the damn car is top secret classified to the public. I could PM you real photos if you would like.

Im just messing around I just dont want any builder to copy the car till its done. I dont want Bill Howell getting any crazy idea's and trying to copy this thing.

Oh shoot me your number so I can bug you while your working.

I almost forgot to mention, but Gordinis garage of Fremont,ca is doing the metal fab on this car. Gordon is redoing the trunk floor, wheel tubs, firewall, drivers side floor, and random bits of sheetmetal here and there. I just realized that the sheetmetal fab skills I employed, were not up to SEMA quality. I'm a much better mechanical/machinist type guy. I will have updates of the trunk floor install with tubs, etc.

The car is SEMA bound for 2008 and Im really looking forward to it.

My first car was a 64 GTO, and the goats are still my favorite cars. Love that rendering.

Hey, guys I got some pics of parts.
We made these parts at my buddys machine shop here in nor cal.
We made the lower bezels on the dash and AC vent lower housing.

I still need to cut out engine turn metal inserts, for the inside of the bezels.
