Thanks. No plans as of now for shows etc. My focus will be on driving and enjoying the car. Who knows though.

Well, it’s done. Picked it up on Wednesday and drive it 160 miles home. Has it dyno tuned on TH as it was a bit angry. Very pleased with the way this build came out. The lady in the pic is my 82 year old mom who has owned this car since new in 1971. Let’s just say she was happy to see it again.

Congrats on the completion of a long and rewarding journey. Many of us are looking forward to the same day for our projects and can only hope they turn out half as nice as yours. I might be a little green with envy.

Congrats! That's really awesome that your mom got to see the finished product. I'm glad you were able to share it with her. Enjoy driving it!

Thank you sir. Just one of those things you really can’t put a price on.

That color combo is crazy!! Very nice. It's just goes together like peanut butter and jelly, like ham and eggs, like milk and cookies, you know...like gin and juice. Yep...all of that!!
