I want to put more up but unsure about reducing the size of pictures and then restoring them back to original size. Still learning.

I saw this car in storage before you bought it. It's an awesome car with some top shelf parts. Love the motor too.

Man, it sure is hard to find someone that does good fab/welding work to do the turbo piping in the Richmond area in a reasonable amount of time. Going to talk to one more guy today and if that doesn't work....does anyone want to buy the motor and turbos? Just about ready to go with a LS3 motor with a Kenne Bell... something I can do myself at home!

How far you willing to travel for the turbo fab work? What about Turbo Hoses in Livermore? I've seen their shop and work. Looks very good.

I'm in Richmond Va. I looked up turbo hoses and that is a great place especially for parts. Guess I'm 3000 miles from them. Virginia Speed looks like a possibilty since they are about 1 1/2 hours from me. Talked to Brett Hamilton at Hamilton Race Cars in Powhatan Va. He is well known for his fab work. He said he could take the car in in about 2 weeks and only needs 1-2 days working on it! Hope this works out. Thanks guys for your input.
