Mine is being put together in a realllly small garage, I envy you guys with bigger garages, LOL. I do what I can in the space that I have. I haven't been able to pull it out of the garage in 6 years, but by next week I should have my brakes all buttoned up and I'll be able to pull it out of the garage to do work, rather than being crammed all up in there

My car was all home built except the paint job. I started working on the car when I was 15 and decided to do a frame-off restoration when I was 17. I had a local shop paint the car and my dad and I did absolutely everything else. It took me 7 years but finally got it done.

YPT....niiiice!! I like it alot. A nice upgrade would be the Anvil carbon fiber inner fenders to match your close out panel and valve covers.

Don't know if it qualifies as full on pro-touring but here's mine after a little over 3 years and lots of allowance money.
I did everything in a 24X30 garage except rear end assembly and engine. When people doubt if I painted it in my garage I show them the bug buried in the clear...
