Kudos! Awesome work you have already put into this car already. Can't wait to see more pictures. All in a two car garage too! That's impressive.

Metal work is awesome. I can imagine how much nicer it'll look when it's all buttoned up with smoothed out welds.

Thanks Wookham, its coming along. This is all going on in my garage on the weekends and the days I call in sick . I've built some cars in the past but nothing like this. I learned to tig weld at the Lincoln Electric Motorsports welding school just to build this car. Before this I had very limited sheet metal experience and even less chassis building experience. After two years of fabrication I've figured out and learned quite a bit. Of course this means I've redone parts of the car I did in the beginning when I really wasn't sure how to do it. I'm hoping to wrap up the sheet metal fab work this fall and move to the mechanicals and interior.

PM me and I'll get you over to the house to see it.
