Thumbs up

There should be a lot of build pics on that car. Frank is a great builder/planner of these cars, pro-touring/restomods. I do believe that this car was built for him and his wife to enjoy. I can almost bet that it is done to the fullest and best that Frank and his company could do.
Frank is truly a stand-up guy and well respected on this forum and other forums as well. Also a sponsor on a couple of forums too. That should speak volumes about him and his word and how he runs his business and Prodigy Customs.
GOOD LUCK!!!

Here's the "freshen up" build thread:

Original build thread:

The point is that is a well documented build... Again, good luck in Vegas.. I hope both you and Frank end up happy campers.

A good sign also is how one of their follow up cars finished the Bull Run successfully.

Just saw it on the cover of Super Chevy.

Very good point, another one is that this is Lisa's personal car, built by husband Frank, son Michael and the rest of the crew at Prodigy Customs.

Good luck on your bidding.

As an outsider with little exposure to the car and the owners I would be asking the same questions you are and I would be a bit nervous too. Over the last two years I have gotten to know Frank and Lisa and can honestly say that I would have no problem buying any car from them sight unseen. I have that much trust, faith and respect for them. It would be hard to give a higher recommendation.

Best of luck to you in your bidding and now that you're a member stick around and have some fun with us.

Frank is highly respected and is a fantastic car builder. He has built alot of very high profile cars as well as builds for SEMA so I would not worry about quality. He also is a dealer for alot of high end parts that forum members have bought.

Here's a link to Emptynest as a feature on this site:

https://lateral-g.net/members/serafine/

Plus it was on the Cover of High Performance Pontiac not too long ago.

Good luck and hope you get the car

Ahh jeeze guys, thanks a million for all the kind words! You guys realy have no idea how much that stuff means to Lisa and I.

I never met this gentlman, or at least he never intorduced himself. Funny thing is someone would ask all this information on the forum and not speak to me or ask me any detail questions in person? John or I was with the cars litterly every minute from 8AM to the second they sold.

1000s of people looked at them, tons of complimentary comments, but I have to admit on Saturday I really did not have any "really strong" buyer interest, so I knew going up it would be weak.

I don't know who he was or if he bid, but if he flew to vegas just to buy Emptynest, and quit at $80K, he missed a hell of a deal!
