The day you drive it under it's own power will be a major testament to the power of the human will.

By the looks of the rendering, it looks like it's matured into what will be a killer track car. Me like

Same here, Tyler's original build with the LT1 T56 inspired my build. I would like to see this car get done and fully support you buddy.

And wish you sold those Defender mats a few months back I would have bought one for my engine swap. I may still get one so let me know when thier available.

I like the front end cover design ... it would be cool to have a couple of pockets on the front section for putting nuts and bolts or tools.

Wow Tyler, that thing is bad as$. I've always loved that car, its hard to believe how those subtle changes could improve the style of that car so much. Its been a long road, you've got to be chomping to be done, and cruising.

Good luck with the new venture, Tyler.

Guess who finally squirreled enough cheddar away to stop paying monthly storage and maybe, juuuuussssst maybe get this thing out of Rodger's shop and back home to my loving garage?

Me.


It was me. That was a good guess. You were right.

All I will say at this point is that Rodger Lee owner of Ironworks Speed and Kustoms is a professional. He has been more patient with me than my own flesh and blood parents. (and they had to suffer through me learning to play the drums in their house as a teenager)

I've taken up an entire section of Rodger's back storage for many years now, decommissioned a chassis table for a decade, and probably caused a few thousand jokes about my car at his expense. Again, he has been nothing but understanding, accommodating, communicative, and a very cool guy when it came to my many stall outs, fund shortages, plan revamps, and career changes.

I'll let Rodger decide if he would like to update this thread to include any build photos. I'll try and check in but these days message forums are very tough to keep up with.

That said, here is 4-5 years worth of dust and rust seeing the light of day once again. The world champion of stalled-never-completed-out-of-my-budget-project-car-from-1999; the 50/50 Camaro.

Good luck Tyler!
