Thanks buddy. I have had to slow down on mine. Working my ass off and trying to finish the car in record time had to stop. Luckily I am at that 90 percent point. It's pretty inexpensive to get it here from Reno man.

There are lots of talented builders on this website.
I've talked to Tyler (ATS) a bunch of times over the years and I would trust him to build my car. It just happens that Ironworks is located in Calif and that was a huge factor for me when picking a builder.

Granted, Bakersfield is every bit as far away as Reno but, when your building a car such as the ones on this site....I think you're damn lucky to find a builder that close.

I've spoken with Roger half a dozen times over the past couple weeks and I feel like I'm in very good hands.

You can't go wrong with either of these two shops.

Thanks Rodger. I am familiar with your work from seeing you on this site. Very nice stuff indeed.

I will give you a ring if it gets to a point where I need to pull the trigger on someone else finishing it. I am also thinking that once it gets down to it, there likely shouldn't be that much left to do and thus preferring to keeping it more local. But we'll see....

thanks for posting
