Well I can't agree more - I have two projects a 66 ss chevy II and my old 56 chevy - I bought it back from a fellow after not having it for 17 years.

Nice! Small world here in the PNW! Call me anytime, Doug and let me know if you want to put this one on paper too. I'm 30 minutes away and can come out whenever.

Well I've got a few more pics of the rear end fab and cage work. A pic of one of the bolts turned in the lathe for appearance. The goal was to keep the cage as tight to the body as we could. We cut out the front corners of the dash and inset the cage thru the dash, then will replace dash to fit around.

Thanks Doug

Nice progress Doug.

On average how much time do you get to spend on it each week?

I'd say probably 20 hours a week! Sometimes more.

That's a lot obviously. Nice that you can keep making some timely progress on it.

I noticed you've got some big wheels planned for it. What influenced you to choose those sizes?
