"this" in my previous post means the Camaro.

Spent a fair bit of time noodling on it, reducing drama along with my wife trying to make me a better Christian.

Love the big rig JJ, looks like it'll be just the ticket for hauling the family and rigs. One of my favorite Bonneville racers was Carl Heap with his 1943 International...something about seeing something that big go that fast had me hooked.

Big ole Detroit with 4 turbos and a couple superchargers got him a red hat and in the books at 272mph.

That is awesome... not sure we'll be going that fast with the Cat and a set of three turbos though

Took a break on the Diamond T for a bit.

Pulled this out of the corner to assess is, decided to start cleaning up the firewall and look what happened. 8 hours later, I have mud on it, primer inside and out, first run sanded and started cleaning up the driver's side wheel tubs. The flare needs more grinding and shaping.

May even get to cutting the passenger side.

Yeah, it felt good to work on it. I got the passenger side NOS quarter welded on. I should be able to get it cut next week.

Have the carbon fiber rockers back, need to cut and fit those too.
