No new pics right this second. I have busy with work and trying to get rid of a house and get plans drawn up for a new one. I am heading down to start bolting on some parts next week as I have 11 days off work. The guys at Dutchboys have been hitting it hard last few days getting the shell all wet sanded, polished, and buffed so that it ready to start having parts put back on!!

I ordered a new tilt column from Jim at GMtilt.com, a new momo steering wheel and a few other parts. Also the whole brake kit from Tobin at Kore3 came in and what a great couple of guys to deal with. Got a small moutian of other parts as well fat mat, radio system, Highway 22 kit. I ended up going with the GM C6 Z06 brake kit with sliver calipers. Tobin had such a good deal on them and for what I will use the car for and my driving skills right now I figure they will be more than enough for me. I wanted baer brakes but trying to keep cost in check so I can keep this project moving. I have seen many guys run these brakes with great success also.

I spent today getting all the glass, window tracks, regulators, etc... all cleaned up and ready to go in.

So for now that is my current update and I will get a bunch of pics next week and share them with you all. Everyone keep WARM with this crazy cold weather!
