Awesome Jeff! Well deserved and congrats!

I was confused for a second, I live close to Cloverdale where there was a big show and for a second there I thought you brought the car here but... Clearly not Canada

Hi Jeff,

I'm glad to hear that Trans Am wasn't able to shake you Sounds like your using the car as intended...LOL

It's good to hear you have your car at home now and can go for evening and weekend drives as the weather permits.

Enjoy!

Joe

Thanks Joe. Have had it out every day this week

Already getting dirty looks from the neighbors who aren't fond of the Borlas... I fricken love them!

This was early Sunday morning getting ready to go for a ride. Son shooting a quick video. I will get some good footage this weekend.

Well said. Simple yet detailed at the same time. Love the old school minimalist look with modern components. Can't wait to get her home.

Looking forward to the Wed night out at Sears Point we talked about to see what she will run and getting to the next GG event and run the cones. Also want to do the 2014 Run to the Coast event.

Not only is Chris a builder he is a great tuner and suspension set up guy so we should have her dialed in good by then.

Oh yeah. There will likely be many sets. I plan on driving her as much as I can and enjoying it.

Thanks but I just gave Chris the canvass and an idea of what I wanted. He worked his magic and executed on the concept bringing it to life.

The awards are more in recognition of the execution and efforts of Chris at WCAC and the crew that worked on it.

Brought here home today.


Had to stop for a cool pic along the way while ripping though the back roads.


It's good to have her tucked away in her garage.
