Here's where mine is now, In process of running brake and fuel lines.

Built the entire frame in house and did all the rotiserie work in my tiny 1 car garage. Painted the bottom outside and it turned out good, will most likely have to farm out the final paint to a shop, but I can do all the prep work.

took the car to my alingnment shop before final welding on the frame and it came out within 1/16 of being perfectly square, it's all adjustable in almost every dimension too...

Rodger, saw your previous post, and you posted it right after my first post in this thread, I have to give you credit, you had the shock mounts cut out for me... Don't knock us DIY'ers, See my Sig

We are all do it your selfers in one way or another. Just for some of us it used to be a hobby and now we do it for a living. I don't see difference between any guy listed in this post and Chip Foose. They all are just doing what they can, Chip just has way bigger resources.
