Well, i finally ended starting up my 'Vert project!!! I'm just finishing a few electrical connection and i need to put my seat in and i'm ready for the first drive down the driveway!!! I planned on taking it out last Friday but i now aim for Friday of this week.

Sorry its so short, we did not have any battery left and i ran it just to show the wife as the rad ad no water and my gauges we're not plugged in yet but you get the idea...MAN ITS LOUD!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!

At the exhaust...

5 years in the making, 2 back surgeries in the middle of the build, redid the WHOLE exterior of the house in the mix as well as some of the interior and not the least my third little Princess (getting ready for a drive) got here in the project's timing as well...Sometimes i have a hard time beleiving i hung in there and finished it.....But i did!!!!

Oh, and here is the other project i just got a few weeks ago (with my Old Pro Touring stuff (actually still bran new never ran but still been at friends house for few years now lol!!!) (Wheels, 6.0L and T56, C6 Z-06 Brake set up and a lot more misc parts) He did put a lot in it, body is almost 100% new, suspension is awesome, but i have the body for sale locally, i wanted to get my parts back to re-PT my convertible bu i dont know, i like it how it is...I'll see. This is such a nice and easy project i'm starting to like it more and more every time i go in the garage i see it finished so i don't know...I have a guy that showed serious intrerest in the 'vert so who knows. I just dont know if i'm ready to get into another build right away tough....The only motivation would be i would have a pretty good budget from the sale to fund the Hard top right away and no waiting...Could be fun.

We'll see!!!

Here are some pics;

Its a nice base to start off of.

Lead,, who built the subframe for the HD-top ?? Was it a Wayne Due ? Hate to see you sold it,, but I sold the last 2 i completed,Paid house off !! Slower $$ as you spend and go,,

Its built off a mix of WD and Morrison but was done at a local Nascar shop. Why sad? its still there but i'm selling the whole car, i'M just keeping my brakes, t56, 6.0L and wheel tires at this point.... If i sell the vert, i might build this one, but now i have buyers for both of them so i might change the whole thing. I have a buddy that has an ultra sano 62 Bubbletop 409 4speed that would be nice with the 3 kids or i looked at some 911, my wife likes em too. We'll see.

....Money on the house is not out of the question either...We grow up don't we!!!

lead, that vert is looking good! im more the drag race kinda guy myself so i really dig that look, although the stance on the hardtop is absolutely killer!
