Congrats on getting the car up and running! It turned out really nice.
Glad you got the wiring on the starter turned around, that's kind of funny. But only because I have done the same thing.
So lets see a series of pics as a walk around of the car now that it's all done.

Not quite done yet. Still have to button up the interior and lots of cleaning and detail work to do. I will get some complete pics up soon.

The end is near.............

Well my punch out list is down to just a few items. I finally get to drive it in the next day or two. I have forced myself from starting to drive it because I would not want to go back and finish some details I have been working on. Finally time to reap some rewards of my labor and way too much $$ spent.

Here is the exhaust I had put on last week.

Dude I have to tell you, I am so very impressed with your work ethic on this car. I have spent the last hour reading the progress up till now and I am so stoked for you. In the pasy three weeks, my three car buddies and I have gotten their rides that we have been working off and on for the past 3-6 years on the road. I am last with my 70 GTO. Ain't it amazing what I have read over the past hour has consumed your life for the past 1.5 years.

Now, we all need some outdoor stance pictures asap!!

You have really hit a homerun with this car. What a sweet ride.

Thanks a ton!! Got it's public debute tonight at a weekly show in shine. Lots of attention and positive comments. I'm stoked...

Ignoir the missing center cap and the rear stance. Those will be addressed soon. Here is the first daylight complete pics in 14 months. For grins I added one of the original pics from before I started.

Excellent job !!! It's a great feeling to get em' back on the road after a long teardown. Give yourself a big pat on the back and enjoy !!! All that's left looks like a small reupholstery job on the kid's car seat and your golden!!

And get her to give up her pink seat she picked out. I'd rather fight a polar bear in a pond full of alligators.
