I stand corrected on the engine i think he did put that in himself but after i read his project thread it looks like they just did the suspension and body

So far all of mine is done in my garage. Including all body work, my own custom design/built rear suspension, my own mini-tub, and firewall flush. Even made my own hood, and made my own C4/C5 Z06 brake conversion. Now doing a LSx conversion with my own engine mounts, and custom dash was going to go with a 4th gen dash but decided to do it my own way and I plan on doing the interior. This is the only way I can afford the car in my brain. If I had to shop any of it out. I couldn't afford it. Life happens, it has taken me 25 years to get to this point. A real family mans budget here. Yes, it isn't as pristine as some on these sites, but I can say it is all me.

So far everything has had my two hands involved...although I'm pretty sure the local authorities weren't exactly happy with me painting the car in my garage... something about it not being a OSHA approved jobsite

OSHA has a funny way of looking at box fans and furnace filters mounted in 2X4 frames for a filtration system. I know my garage door does not qualify as explosion proof either.
